Rare WW2 British Field Telephones Type M1

A rare pair of WW2 British issue field telephones that were manufactured by STC (Standard Telephones and Cables Ltd) of London, the company ceased all civilian production for the duration of the war.
The factory took a direct hit during a Luftwaffe bombing raid but managed to get back to full production in a short period of time.
The handsets are fresh to the collecting world and remain in untouched condition, the green painted bodies with hinged mouthpieces do have some loss of finish and some very light surface rust bleeding through the paintwork.
The speak and morse signalling buttons still compress but are not tested, the back plates are removable and reveal the original printed wiring layout .
A rarely encountered field telephone.
