Field Trial 5-69 F-57415 Handset and F-57417 Base

This 1969 Clear Trimline was purchased from the daughter of a commercial manager who worked for Ohio bell in Cleveland Ohio from 1943 to 1973.
He helped in acquiring unique phones from Western Electric & Bell System Labs for the small telephone museum in the basement of the Ohio Bell Building.

As received April 13th 2023

Update: May 04 2023.

A friend and fellow collector sent me a couple New Old Stock line cords for this Trimline.

I hooked it up and it works just like the day it came out of Bell Labs.
