It weighs, seemingly, about 20 pounds.
Once a very long time ago, I had seen a photograph of Henry R. Luce, before he met Clare Booth Luce, sitting at his desk at Time magazine, taken about the time Fortune was founded, which would've been circa 1930. I noticed the telephone, and decided I wished to have one like it, although obviously it wouldn't do me any good.
I figured it would be a long, fruitless search, and that all I'd ever find was some replica, priced in the hundreds of bucks.
I lived in Lincoln at the time, and there was a business that refurbished old telephones--Burden's Supply Center--and I decided to check it out one time.
There were lots and lots of old telephones there, available for sale, and there was my model, for five bucks. I dunno if Burden's still does this (they've become rather more famous since then, as Burden's Outdoors Outfitters, or something like that), but at the time, the late 1970s, early 1980s, they sold a lot of refurbished telephones, although for practical use, not as antiquities.
It is a great looking telephone. I myself have an Underwood Standard portable typewriter that was manufactured in 1937 that is identical to William Faulkner’s favorite typewriter. It is in excellent condition. I picked it up at a St. Vincent DePaul’s thrift store in Columbus for $20 in 1987.
I still use it (in fact, I’m posting this on FR with it). I’m personally not fond of antiques, but typewriters and telephones really ring my bell.
