Working German Field Telephone (FF33) 1941
Couldn't load pickup availability
A rare and fully functional piece of WWII communication history – this original Feldfernsprecher 33 (FF33) field telephone was manufactured in 1941 by E. Becker u. Co., Berlin , as confirmed by the clear maker's mark and date stamp on the casing.
What truly sets this specimen apart is that it is still in working condition . We've discreetly added two wires with clip terminals (without altering or damaging the original unit), allowing it to run on a simple flat 4.5V battery. With this setup, it can actually transmit and receive signals — just like it did over 80 years ago. This makes it not only a highly collectible item but also a functional conversation piece for displays, reenactments, or educational purposes.
