Exhibits

New Exhibit! A working, antique, crank-style telephone!

The latest addition to our collection is a

double feature... Thanks to the generous

donations of Brent and Kim Bergheger, and

Larry and Kathy Wesselman, the Heritage

Museum received two antique, crank-style

telephones. Darryl Stein and Mark Pruett

hooked them up.

One is downstairs near the parlor, the other

one is upstairs at the back of our meeting area

(shown below). And they work, too! If one

person cranks up the downstairs phone, another

person can hear the bell ring upstairs, pick up the

ear piece, and have a talk. Fancy to try it out?

Bring a buddy and come on in.
