THE HISTORY OF TUNGSRAM 1896-1945 - MEK

^...^History Committee of TUNGSRAM Co. Ltd., feeling its responsibility in exploring,conserving and fostering the Company's past traditions, decided to publish theCompany's history.The present Volume embraces events since early days until the end of World War II.Of course, no completeness can be aimed at as no comprehensive authentic social,historical and industrial background can be represented; this would go well beyondour scope.A preliminary remark seems to be inevitable on the Company's name. For sake ofsimplicity, we call us TUNGSRAM, although it was in those times merely theCompany's well-known main trade mark, registered in the year 1909 and assumed asstyle but as late as the 1st January 1989.Our intention is to enable all those to appreciate our achievements, who havewitnessed and shared the Company's efforts and successes and continue tocollaborate.Our firm conviction is, that the present is better understood and the establishment ofthe future is confirmed by the revelation of our past..V:, '••-•• , TV .--.• • • • -r • • >History Committee of TUNGSRAM Co.
