Stromberg Carlson Telephone
3/17/1998 3:30:53 PMnatalie
Hi,
I am trying to find out about the Stromberg Carlson Company, specifically the following information:
1. When they began business
2. When they first made telephones
3. where to get information that will allow me to identify and date a telephone held in our museum collection.
4. whether the company is still around and if so where they are based etc

If anyone can help I would approciate it as we are presently putting a new gallery/exhibit in place and want to put the telephone in it if it is of the correct time period.

Thanks
Natalie

The Stromberg Carlson Tel Mfg Co., Rochester, NY
operated from the early 1900's and slowly has been
transformed into the Siemons Stromberg Carlson, now
based in Florida.
What model do you have?

I used to work for Stromberg Carlson in Rochester fron1965 to 1974. I have some parts for phones that were made during that time and possible wiring diagrams I believe its a model 1500 but I'm not sure. I'm willing to share anything Ihave,

Thanks for replying. I happen to be looking for a replacement finger whell for the
one that my dog ate. No, I'm not kidding, he broke off two finger holes of the current plastic on.
He's a golden retriever/pit bull mix. Sometimes the pit bull comes out at the oddest times. Anyway,
the dial mechanism has a marking on it: a white square with a 79 in it.
Here's my email address: koransky@mail.netisa.net. Please send a message
so that we may "converse".
Thank you for your offer!

Hello to anyone who knows anything about Stromber Carlson intercoms. I have two with all the parts, cords, ring boxes, etc. Is it alright to clean these before I try to sell them, or will that hurt the value. We have a place called THE PHONE STORE here in Owensboro, KY that cleans and restores. But I wanted to know from collectors, if I should have anything done or just try to sell them as is. Please email me with any answers to this matter. Hariette

I am also restoring a Stromberg-Carlson with 1243 stamped on the underside...
(I dont know if this is a model number or not?)

As of now I dont have any wiring diagram, and the phone is not functioning...
(The phone might not be compatable with the service being used? Im in the process of finding out.)

However, I have drawn up a schematic freehand, and Im willing to compare wiring notes with anyone who thinks they might have the same model.

Q:Also wheres the best place to cloth covered phone wire?

Natalie,
I have a very thorough Stromberg-Carlson catalog and would be happy to help you identify your telephone set. If you can send me an e-mail picture or at least describe the markings on the bottom of the set, I could probably help you.
Stromberg Carlson was absorbed by a Swedish company several years ago but I cannot recall it off the top of my head, but will be able to find it Monday at work.
They had a large plant in Chicago in the 40's and 50's along with Western Electric, Kellog Switchboard and Supply Company, Automatic Electric Company and the Leich Electric Company, all of which made telephone sets and related equipment.
Feel free to e-mail for any information you need. I have access to a large amount of reference material.
