This is the central part of the magneto switchboard. Each numbered shutter will drop when its associated line (which could be a party line) is signaled. It also makes a rattling noise as the remote magneto is cranked.
When the cord plug is inserted in the jack, (#8 is shown dropped or wanting service in this example) the shutter returns to its resting position, and the operator and subscriber are connected.

Olivenbäume prägen die Heimat des italienischen Künstlers Emanuele Gatto und spielen eine zentrale Rolle in einer seiner jüngsten fotografischen Werkreihen. Kulturgeschichtlich steht der Oliven- oder Ölbaum für das Leben und folgerichtig trägt die Friedenstaube einen Ölzweig im Schnabel.

The exchanged was owned by drug store partners Charles and Frank Koontz and was located above the Koontz drug store in the 100 block of W Plymouth St.
Frank's daughter Ruth Koontz, standing, was visiting Garnette Skinner and Lena Weiss, operators. All calls had to go thru this switchboard. The operator connected your telephone line to the line you were calling.
One of the most comprehensive and fascinating (not to mention one of the largest) museums I've ever visited.
