MAGYAR POSTA TULAJDONA BUDAPEST HUNGARY
Type: Desk Phone
Manufacture : Ericsson
Production Date : Manufactured in Mid 1930
Hungarian State-owned company Magyar Posta, the Hungarian version of PTT,
Based on the Ericson CB 24 phones which were made in the 1926. Estimate mid 1930.
In the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary, Ericsson, together with local banks, became the owner of two telephone plants, one in Vienna and one in Budapest, in the early 1910s. In both cases, existing operations were taken over. The company that operated the Hungarian plant was named Ericsson Ungarishe Elektrizitäts Aktiegesellschaft.
The CN phones were used with electromechanical PABXs designed and built by Ericson, which were either sold outright to customers, or rented/leased to them.
