Stromberg Carlson 1216 Multi Line Antique Phone Parts But a closer look revealsThis is a very interesting Multi line phone from Stromberg Carlson. It is based on the 1198 bakelite phone. It is the same bakelite phone shell attached to a cast metal extention base to accomodate the extra buttons and switches, certainly a unique design. We have added a modern network and internal ringer to this classic to allow it to be used on modern phone lines.
