Many companies have come and gone over the years, leaving little behind them but a few phones in collections. One of the interesting parts of this hobby is tracking down the companies and their history. It is surprising just how much some of them contributed to early telephony.
The information given here may not be entirely accurate nor complete, but we have to start somewhere if we are to reconstruct their history. My thanks go to those who have contributed information. Every little bit goes to build up the picture of a company.
