Telephone Magneto Wall, Bridging Type (Delville)

Introduced around 1895, this telephone was made by the British Western Electric Company.  This instrument is similar to the Hunningscone (Telephone No. 7) but features a more advanced transmitter which did not suffer packing problems.

Later versions of this telephone feature the PMG No. 1 solid back transmitter with special adapter bracket.
