Thanks. The Station Wagon theory certainly works for me as they date back to the 1920's, anyway. Judging from the paper wrapped copper wire and cone shaped ear piece I would guess this call box dates back to the early 1900's, so I'm not sure how many SWAT or Bomb Squad calls might have been made. This particular box was made in Newton, MA.
