I’ve got a couple of old thephones with real bells in them that I keep for nostalgic purposes but nothing like some of the folks at Telephone Collectors International do. One of the more recent projects a group of them has been working on is linking old electromechanical switching gear together via the Asterisk PBX software. The group calls itself CNET but I can imagine some trademark names with that. In any event they have a website up with some details about it, but be paitent the site loads quite slowly.
There’s also a Telephone Pioneers Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska.
