Stromberg Carlson 1243 - Chrome Antique Phones or a plastic subset fromHistory The Stromberg Carlson 1243 is a great example of 1940s design. Introduced as a direct competitor to the Western Northern Electric 302, the 1243 also has a similar physical design. Like the 302, the 1243 contains the ringer and induction coil within the phone thereby eliminating the need for a separate subscriber set or bell box that was common in earlier phones. The ring of this phone is a real attention grabber that will bring back memories
