Vintage Western Electric Telegraph Cut Out Dead Man Latching Relay - Very Nice Collectable.SHIPPING TO THE USA ONLY (My ref: R-12)
One rare vintage and unique Western Electric telegraph cut out dead man relay.
When “set”, this interesting relay will open the circuit when it receives voltage. As the coil pulls in, it releases the latched contact which springs up and opens the circuit. When used with a sounder, it opens the circuit when on operator is not present, so no messages are missed.
Has the
Western Electric label
on one end.
Base is black metal and wood. Coil resistance about 2 ohms. Size is about 2 3/4 x 6".
Very nicely restored condition.
NOTE:
This vintage item is from a
private telegraph and railroad collection
from the 1950-60s. Soon after that it was put into storage for decades. My other
current high quality telegraph auction items
are from the same collection. Now available for you to own after 50+ years.
Condition is
very good.
Item was carefully professionally repaired / restored
back in the 1950-60s close to its original look and functionality. It is near “
Museum Quality
”. That means that
some parts
were replaced, refinished or repaired to restore item. Some minor changes in patina or finish may have occurred during storage. There is minor wear due to age and use. This item was carefully inspected prior to listing. No damage, broken or missing parts that I know of. See pictures! Makes a very nice display piece to add to your collection. An item in
this nice condition
rarely appears on Ebay. Don’t pass it up.
See all pictures carefully.
Ask questions before bidding. Sold as is. No return or refund on this item.
