Tecla
Radio
Industry and Trading Company
was
established at the Nieuwezijds
Voorburgwal 314
in Amsterdam.
The company was founded by an engineer from Haarlem.
According to a newspaper artice the
company employed 32 people in 1955. |
The only known product was a three-tube pocket
radio, equipped with Hivac subminiature tubes and earphones. |
Later that year, the radio was presented at the Najaarsbeurs
and at the Firato Electronics Fair. A somewhat bigger Japanese
pocket radio was also show there, equipped with three lager
battery tubes and a heavier battery set. The Tecla pocket radio
was smaller and lighter, but the Japanese radio was sold for f 59,50
only and an extra loudspeaker with an amplifying transistor was
available for f 30,-. |
The company probably did not survive the
introduction of cheap transistor pocket radios. After 1955
nothing was heared about Tecla. |
