TELEPHONE MANUFACTURING Co. (TMC)
 TELEPHONE S55680

A Bakelite telephone similar to the GEC Gecophone.

It appears that the same ‘innards’ were used to refurbish older telephones as the chassis is also found labelled as a 'Conversion Set for PAX instruments Code SS2597 TMC S55680'.  The induction coil is identical with the BPO type 27.  Surplus stocks of these assemblies were sold off by J Bull (Electrical) Ltd  during the 1980s and to confuse people further, some collectors have fitted them to Gecophone bodies as well.

More information is required on this model.
