    Hi,

    I'm sure someone in here can help me. :)

    I accquired a really old (1960's I think) black bakelite rotary dial phone..

    I would love to connect it in my house, if not possible I will just use it as an ornament.

    I cut off the original round jack type thingy, now with the wires exposed I have:

    RED wire
    YELLOW wire
    WHITE wire

    All within the black cable/wire.

    Could/should these just be wired into a "glass"/plastic jack thingy?

    Just like a plug?

    Any help greatly appreciated. :)
