Vintage 1976 Sears 3 - Tube DOORBELL DOOR CHIME 746. 4 Or 8 Notes.
Item History & Price
It is our pleasure to offer for your consideration from our personal collection in our smoke-free home:
A beautiful vintage Mid-Century 1976 Sears Roebuck Doorbell Door Chime model 746.14460
It has 3 satin antique brass tubes with a choice of 4 or 8 note Telechron chimes, for up to 3 doors. The doorbell cover is molded plastic with a wood grain finish and 2 cloth panels.
With the cover in place, it is 14-1/2" tall. The cover measures 8-1/4" wide, 5-3/4 tal...l, and 3-1/4" deep.
On the back of the base is marked "JUN 719(?)76".
This doorbell is in very nice condition. From a normal viewing distance, it presents extremely well. However, this is a vintage item that has wear and age that would be expected for an item such as this that has been used and handled, so please do not expect it to be new. Close up, there are a few very light scratches on the bottom of the tubes and on the front of the tubes (see last photo), perhaps a few light overall smudges and spots. There are a few touches of edge paint, mostly on the back of the chime base, but nothing that can be seen when installed.
This is a working doorbell, however, we are not experts on the technical workings of this type of doorbell or how to hook it up. We love these old doorbells, so over the years, we've been collecting them, but it is now time to downsize and we will be selling our doorbells, so watch for our listings. This one is probably our favorite.
