SG Brown Head Phones Type F R2000 Ohms With Bulgin Deckorum Connector

These vintage 1920s/30s SG Brown Head Phones Type F R2000 Ohms With Bulgin Deckorum Connector are in pretty good working condition considering their age. A fantastic representative of radio/broadcasting history. A wonderful addition to a radio ephemera collection, and very stylish!

These Type F have Black bakelite earpieces, Aluminium earpiece cradle, and headband with the original leads. They culminate in a very rare connector with jack plug called the Bulgin Deckorum.

The headphones have a few scuffs and surface scratches commensurate with age and use. The outer part of the black cord is frayed in parts. They have been tested and they are working with a total output of ~ 1930 Ohms.
