Photography: Tel\u00e9fono de campo DPA 1041 The DPA 1041 telephone was manufactured by the company Ericsson during the first half of the 20th century. The Swedish company was founded in 1883 by Lars Magnus Ericsson and even earlier, in 1876, he had launched the first wireless telephone model on the market. The DPA 1041 was available in a rectangular box with a strap to protect and transport the device. The handle on one side of the telephone was used for the power generator, which turned on the bell and the batteries to make a call. In the centre there were two clamps with corresponding cable which enabled the telephone to be connected to another device.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”50488″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This item forms part of the fund of electrical elements and material from the Naturgy Foundation collection, which was incorporated following the merging of Gas NaturalLeer m\u00e1s<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1454,"featured_media":0,"parent":58704,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"templates\/full-width.php","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false},"categories":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/58804"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1454"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58804"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/58804\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/58704"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58804"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fundacionnaturgy.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58804"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
