283B Plug

283b

A 283B four-pronged plug for telephones. This was Bell's early attempt at some kind of modular phone in order to make it easier to move the phone from room to room, or from house to house.

Archivist's notes: I'm not actually sure if this should be in here, as it's more hardware than an accessory. But I read somewhere (I can't remember where) that Bell charged extra for the plug, and so therefore I've placed it here as a more 'optional' addition to phone service.
