R e -C reation of his previous rendition of
the same composition. Three music ex­
perts listened to the result They were
astounded at the absolute fidelity of the
New Edison’s performance to the original.
The New Edison, because of its perfect
realism, had triumphed again.

Pre-War Value
The New Edison is a pre-warvahie bought
with the post-war dollar. Mr. Edison has
seen to it that his favorite invention is
kept within the reach of everyone. As a
result, the price of the New Edison has
increased less than 15% since 1914, Part
of this increase is W ar Tax.^
