My grand parents farm in Minnesota was on a magneto system, they went
from that to a full digital system, the local company had to send out
people to do training. Some did not want their system to change. I got
the phone and have it in my collection along with a few others that i
got from others in the area; back then no one thought about collecting
them. I remember a barn in Wisconsin years ago that had all kinds of
telephones and parts, they were selling for pennies.

That would be Phoneco in Janesville, WI. They are still around, though
the original owner has since died. They still have all kinds of
telephones and parts, but they aren't selling them for pennies any longer.
