Unknown field phone set

Well I have been on a posting roll lately so I figured I'd also show you guys the field phone set recently found. It appears that these are obviously not US issue, but their condition was too good to pass up especially since they operate on a standard "D" size battery. I bought them figuring they wouldn't work but was pleasantly surprised to discover the contrary - both work perfectly!

 

Does anyone know what I have here? Both phones match each other but one appears to be newer than the other (snap style, etc.) The plastic material looks like bake-o-lite although I doubt they are that old. Also the marking shown in picture #3 looks to be German/Austrian? Any information would be appreciated.

The Zurich would mean Swiss mfg. to me...

 

Hello,

 

Yes I think you are correct and the quality of these phones would be consistent with the Swiss. Web searches on "albiswerk zurich" have turned up nothing but modern companies. Thanks for the reply.
