Including the Morkrum Company, and the Morkrum-Kleinschmidt Company

Teletype Corp was originally founded in 1906 as the Morkrum Company. In 1925, a merger between Morkrum and Kleinschmidt Electric Company created the Morkrum-Kleinschmidt Company. The name was changed in 1929 to Teletype Corporation. In 1930, Teletype Corp was purchased by the Bell System and became a subsidiary of Western Electric. In 1984, the divestiture of the Bell System resulted in the Teletype name and logo being replaced by the AT&T name and logo, and consolidation started to take its toll. Sadly, the remnants of Teletype Corp disappeared by 1990.
