Abstract: A support for a one-piece telephone of a type incorporating in a single body all the equipment of a conventional two-part telephone, such as the apparatus, and the switch hooks normally positioned on or under the cradle for switching off the telephone when the handset is replaced. The support comprises a back plate having inclined end portions, one at an acute angle and the other at an obtuse angle with respect to the back plate, the former serving as an abutment for the switch hooks of the telephone, to actuate them to turn off the telephone automatically when it is replaced on the support, and the latter cooperating with a central saddle-like projection to define a cradle into which the earpiece of the telephone can be fitted and retained by means of slight flexure which is permitted by the material of which the device is made, that is a slightly resiliently or semirigid material such as a foamed plastics, rubber or the like.
