Product Overview
Original WW2 German folding wire reel spool, wound with light-gauge field telephone wire. The reel is die-stamped E. ZWIETUSCH & CO, CHARLOTTENBURG, with model number 5006 and the company's stylized monogram. E. Zwietusch & Co. (Telephon-Apparat-Fabrik E. Zwietusch & Co.) was a documented Berlin-Charlottenburg telephone apparatus manufacturer, making this a clearly marked example tying directly to a known period supplier. This is the removable wound-wire reel disc that mounts into the folding Kabeltrommel carrier frame; the carrier itself is not included. Wire and spool show wear consistent with field use.
