Mystery Phone – Identified!

Thanks to the marvelous Sam Hallas – I’ve identified the mystery phone I bought from ebay.  It seems to be a “Telefonbau und Normalzeit” (T&N) E2 – so we were right, it is a German design – although it was likely to have been supplied in the UK.

Now that I know what it is, and have a reasonable idea what plastic it is, I can set about taking it apart to clean it up.  As you can see from the next picture, it’s quite clearly spent the last 40 years in someones shed!

So, that’s been the sum total of my progress for the weekend.
