There
is a red stamp of German Wehrmacht on the central lever of this telephone which
couldn't be there before October, 1935. The capacitors inside are marked with
"37" numbers which means the telephone was made in 1937 or
later.
It
was quite interesting to find out that good old FF-26 field telephones have
remained in production even in 1937 together with more modern FF-33 that have
been launched a couple of years before, in 1933.
