In
May 1922 Kunstzaal Edison opened its doors. The shop was owned
by Larsen de Breij & Co, and was situated at Lange
Poten 15 in The Hague. The firm imported Farrand loudspeakers
and sold New Edison gramophones, as main importer of Thomas A. Edison Inc.
In the years
1925-1929 radios were sold under the name "Crystalphone".
Well known models were the "Crystalphone 4a" and "Junior".
In Frans J.J. Driessens' book "Opkomst van de Nederlandse radio-industrie"
a number of types and variants are described. In the beginning
of the 1930's models were made that have a Erres/Van der Heem
chassis with a Crystalphone cabinet. In the second half of the
thirties, Körting radios were sold, using the name Crystalphone. |
