Default Re: GEC Reliance Phone

Hello Ron,

As far as I know, the Reliance Telephone Company was started in London by Ernest Silberman, and was bought out by GEC. Anyone out there got any more information? I know because of Arnie Weinstock's legentary generosity, we were exceedingly well paid, and had the privelege of being the last company in the known universe to use those Bedford HA Viva vans, as well as ancient Telequipment scopes where you bought a round if you got one to trigger.

Bob.
