Field Telephone Set Type J

[Flying10uk]

I've never seen yours

I'm not entirely sure when the Type J field telephones first came out but I believe it to be post WW2, most likely in the late 1940's/early 1950's. They had certainly started being surplussed by the mid 1970's when the pair that I have were purchased.

They must have been gone by the time I was seeing UK issue equipment then. I saw WW2 Binoculars and some other kit. Mk V helmets and such...anyway, I'm sure you can rewire those to take a modern battery or power source.
