Early G.M. Phelps sounder with a round nickel base and undamaged original coils. Dates to mid to late 1860’s. One of the knurled adjustment nuts appears to have been replaced (it’s nickel — the rest are brass), but the sounder otherwise appears to original throughout. Condition is good, and nothing has re-plated or polished.
Approximately 4″ high, with a base that’s approximately 4″ in diameter (excluding the mounts).
A very nice example of an historic and seldom seen telegraph sounder.
