All,
A couple of weeks ago there was a post asking if anyone had a right angle phone jack. This was for an aircraft restoration and I have since deleted the message. I was looking through a box from my Dad's old collection and found two jacks that appear similar to what was in the photo. They are the standard black plastic normal for WW2 connectors, they are a bit over one inch in diameter and 1/4 inch thick. On a flat side of the jack there are three holes for wire leads. The underside is embossed with the name CARTER and "made in USA" and "Pat. Pending". Under the Carter is either a 13 or 7. The metal Jack is not brass,but shiny metal and has the more pointed end rather than round as on the normal PL-55 straight Jack. It appears to be the same size and length of a PL-55 Jack. 
If the above description sounds like a match, I would be happy to send photos. Please contact me at sinclair@ mc.net if interested.
Regards,
Jim son of W6FKQ
