Manhattan Electrical Supply
Manhattan Electrical Supply Company, known as MESCO, was one of the largest electrical supply dealers in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Operating from 17 Park Place in New York City with factories in Jersey City, the company manufactured and distributed a broad line of electrical equipment including telephones, telegraph instruments, batteries, and signaling devices. MESCO produced potbelly and rope shaft candlestick telephones during the competitive independent telephone era of the 1890s-1910s. Their extensive illustrated catalogs are preserved at the Smithsonian and Library of Congress.
