Post War German Television
In March 1950, the staff of the Sowjetische Aktiengesellschaft Sachsenwerk in Radeberg Germany were ordered to manufacture 30,000 television receivers for the Soviet Union before the end of the year. According to Soviet design worksheets, a production line was erected in a remarkably short time, requiring the development of numerous new components. The "Leningrad" originally bore an inscription in Cyrillic script. A small number was produced with German inscriptions and specifications, to mark the occasion of the start of GDR television in 21-December-1952. The production of the "Leningrad" in Radeberg prompted the Oberspreewerk (later: Werk fur Fernsehelektronik, Oberschoneweide) to resume production of television sets.
