More information

Lars Magnus Ericsson grundade sin elektromekaniska verkstad i april år 1876. Detta endast några månader efter det att Alexander Graham Bell lämnat in sin patentansökan på sin första telefon i februari samma år. I Sverige presenterades Bells telefon för första gången sommaren 1877, och Lars Magnus Ericsson köpte senare samma år in ett antal telefoner, som han noggrant undersökte, och senare även kopierade. Lars Magnus verkstad fick under det kommande året in flera amerikanska telefoner för reparation, och detta arbete ledde till att han så småningom kunde konstruera en egen modell som baserade sig på Bells modell. I november 1878 tillverkades de första telefonerna med ”trumpet”, och sammanlagt tillverkades drygt 20 par innan årets slut. Auktionens telefon tillhör dessa första exemplar. Modellen är synnerligen ovanlig och det är ytterst sällsynt att den förekommer på den öppna marknaden.
