Can anyone tell me a good place to get the old, heavy, real bell, Western
Electric telephones?  I'm interested in all styles (desk, Trimline, Princess,
etc.).

I know about the Telephone Outlet in Republic, Pennsylvania and have done
business with them.  Their phones are heavy, with the real bell, and made
and refurbished in the U.S.  However, I'm looking for a place that not only
sells phones with Western Electric insides, but also Western Electric out-
sides.  I am looking for the phones that have the words "Western Electric"
on the phone piece (desk phones) and the base.

Can anyone of you help me?

Thanks,

David Dumas
