You have a oak wall phone manufactured by Kellogg Switchboard and Supply of Chicago, Ill around 1910. It is missing the writing shelf, but other wise looks original.

We're trying to help an elderly neighbor who found a very similar phone in her deceased father's workshop. I has all the inerds and orifinal cords, has never been refinished. We're trying to decide whether to clean it up, refinish, sell on ebay or just have at a local estate sale. Maybe she'd clear $50.00 here. Maybe on ebay after lots of work and shipping she might clear $80.00. What's your best advice? Thanks, Bob
