A rare 1945 dated ‘ark’ ff33 field phone

A very interesting 1945 dated ff33 field phone executed in blaugrau paint. It is made by prx which stands for Heliowatt  Heliowatt ElektrizitätsAG, Werk Schweidnitz/Schlesien. It is also marked “ark” indicating for Arktisch or Arctic climates.  The overall design of the field phone is a late war variant, blue paint and bakelite connection points for outgoing lines. Pré 1944 these where still made of metal.

On the side of the field phone a original hand painted message can be seen;

The field phone appears to be in good shape and is complete with all the necessary parts to use it including the battery box which is mostly broken or missing. I have not opened or tested the field phone. 

A truly rare late war field phone in used but good condition!
