Victrola her art and personality are brought to you with
unerring truth. . '
It js this absolute fidelity that has established the supremacy
of the Victrola; that caused Galli-Curci to decide, to make
records only for the Victor; that has attracted into the ranks
of Victor exclusive talent the greatest artists of all the world.
There are-Victors and Victrolas in great rarietjr of styles from $10 to $400.
