Incorporated in 1933, the Telsen Electric Company Ltd were manufacturers of wireless broadcast receivers, components and construction kits. They had a cabinet making department turning out polished furniture into which wireless receivers were built, mainly from their own components. They were also buying Bakelite cases from Edwin Elliot in Birmingham.
They produced every component one might require for the building of a wireless receiver at home, including the blueprint layouts to encourage tidy construction of receivers to the Telsen designs. The components were listed in a catalogue, which later became incorporated into the Telsen Radiomag, published in Birmingham by James Cond Publishers.[1]
This magazine was produced around 1933 or 1934, and ran for the six issues of volume one. The size of the magazine increased to A4 size after issue two, as did the price, which was 3d for issue two and 6d for issue three, but fell back to 3d for issues five and six. Blueprints were supplied with the larger format magazine as loose sheets.
There are no dates on the magazine covers, and it appears that publication was irregular.
