I had a very old one that I bought at a Salvage Store that had been converted into a usable phone. I bought a rugged piece of lumber and cut it in 3 pieces and put them together side by side with smaller pieces of wood from the back side. I had a piece of wall space in my kitchen that it fit on perfect. I mounted the pnone on it and hooked it up and it did work. After I was forced to move to the Atlanta by my son, after my surgery, I moved into a double-wide after having been in a two story country home for 20+ years. It was too heavy to hang in this place so I sold it at a yard sale for less than half of what I purchased it for. I felt like I lost most of my life when I had to move and down size everything. I am doing great now if I can get up and down the 6 or 7 steps at my front door so there was no way I needed 42 hundred sq ft in a two story house. I sold the phone and it was still attached to the wood back we put it on, to an antique dealer so I know she made some money off of it. She was astounded that it was a working phone. It did have a rotary dial. That was not change when it was converted. I do wish I had taken a picture of it but somehow I managed to overllok that!
