If this set has to be parted out, it would be nice if someone could at least get the crt. Assuming it's good, someone can use it.

When I do get around to parting it out, I'll see that the components which test "good" are posted on here. The rest, I imagine, will be used artistically.
And speaking of rotary phones; my favorite phone is a rotary that I found in a dumpster. It still had the four-prong plug on it (it's in a parts box somewhere). It worked perfectly until the dialing mechanism broke. I want to try using the microphone element for recording...
