Hey, captainmoody!

Yup, It is old telephone equipment. I collect that too! I should have put up a picture of a "66" punch down block next to my 1A2 system.
That is a picture of the termination box from my old house, It was installed in 1954 and was part of a 1A1 system there.
Was a really cool setup from what I heard, 2 lines with intercom! woo hoo!
It served the church, the rectory (later became my house) and the house next door. Of course when the church sold the house the phone company grabbed everything back except the termination box. Two 25 pair cables are still in an underground pipe that goes from my old houses basement to the neighbors. They were asking me about that and I invited them over to explain. Seems that they had no idea that the church owned both houses.
