Description: An early Vibroplex telegraph or Morse key or bug. No serial number that I can find. According to the Vibroplex Collector's Guide by Tom French: "Not all Vibroplex bugs carry a serial number. At least one 1905 Vibroplex is known that does not have a number; this suggests the possibility that Martin decided to number his keys only after he produced a few." Has the 4 line plate with 1904 patent date. This is the A1 Nameplate which was introduced in 1905. Appears complete except for one foot which is missing. Very good condition for its age. I estimate a shipping weight of 5 pounds from Zip Code 91042. I can ship USPS Ground within USA. International Bidders please check Shipping Charges before bidding.
