It was manufactured around 1950, has a mahogany cabinet, and weighs 350 lbs. This was a PBX attendant's station which would have been used in a small motel or office where the individual phones had no dials on them, i.e., all intra-PBX calls had to go through the attendant. Does anyone know if these things are worth money, and if so, how much? I'm not looking for an antique investment, but I want to make a reasonable offer for the unit.
