Model 1897 / Design E or 97
Based on a 1897 model

Produced by L. M. Ericsson, this was a compact Magneto telephone.  Because of it's small size the generator was not very powerful and this ensured that the telephone was not produced in great numbers.

L. M. Ericsson produced this from 1893 and it was their No. 380, which was later renumbered as the AC 210.

It looks like Expoga reproduced the above telephone and fitted a dial.  The Expoga case is not as round as the Ericsson model.  The phones contains no generator.  Produced in the colours: Ivory, Brown and Black.
