Those things turn up here regularly .. the Aust. ones were made by the PMG, or was it STC , anyway the PMG workshops ( PMG = public money grabbers or pigs meat and gravy ). The PMG was the Commonwealth owned post office and telephone company. We didn't have public telephone companies here til recently ...unlike the USA .
In New Zealand, it was even worse, they had a very weird setup, where the Govt. owned all of the radio broadcast stations .It was a commercial enterprise with paid adverts etc., but all owned by the Govt. Very odd and I've never heard of another case like that ... except in the 3rd world country run by a autocrat.
