COLLECTORS VINTAGE PUSH BUTTON QUIET PHONE SPECIAL FOR ROYAL NAVY


Manufactured by Plessey and modified by T.I.S. (Mansfield) specially for The Admiralty for use on Royal Navy ships, these are an old style push button telephone.  

The features peculiar to the model are a press to speak button incorporated into the handset and a cradle which the handset sits into holding it down in case of stormy waters !

It is also a 'Quiet Phone' which means it does not have the usual double gong ringer but is fitted with an early solid-state sounder and light.  

A piece of history in the telephone sector, very early example of digital technology being used in telephony; these came to us directly from the Royal Navy stores as surplus, they are brand new un-issued and never used,

supplied as shown in the photo.
