Used during WW2 and based on Colonel Fullers designs for field telephones.
Later to be replaced by many more similar styles up to type 'F' 'S' & 'W'. For a description on the Fullerphone system see item A0070 above. These sets were made by manufacturers officially approved by the General Post Office (GPO), and are not always marked by the maker.

Your comments:

  • I have 2 of these units manufactured by STC for the PMG workshop Sydney Australia in 1941. They both have an external magneto screwed onto the side of the aluminium case for calling purposes. Restored and in good working order.

  • I have two in used but good condition, My father had them from his service as a radio groundsman in the RAAF stationed in Darwin and then Pierce air base in Western Australia During WW2.
    We used them to communicate from dads workshop to the house when I was school age about 35 years ago, they are complete and still work perfectly.
