The Columbia Grafonolas
The One Incomparable Musical Instrument
The Columbia Grafonola perfect, unapproached; unapproach
able, "The One Incomparable Instrument of. Music"- la the final
expression and evidence of Columbia propriety, prestige, and
leadership. It Bums up all that has been done so far by human
inventiveness to stimulate the sounds and harmonies of Nature;
it combines in one magnificent whole every means of musical
expression sjjven by artito the human race.' ;
The questions of tone and tone-control, the technical prob
lems of sound-reproduction are so superbly solved In the Colum-'
bia Grafonola that comparison can leave no doubt of Its supreme
fitness for the place of honor among all musical .Instruments.
In beauty of tone, in clearness and resonance, and la appearance
it is certain to be equally gratifying. It will be an ornament ta
your home, a source of daily enjoyment to your family, a delight
to your friends. : .-'..
The Columbia Grafonola is the realization of the dream of
two decades the possibility of making hearers forget the pres
ence of the instrument a possibility that has made the Colum
bia laboratories the scene of unceasing experiments until the
dream became the accomplished fact of today. - ' ;
Transparent Purity of Tone. In listening to the Columbia
Grafonola there is no consciousness of anything between the
hearer and the artist. The beautiful instrument seems to fade
and vanish, giving place to a thrilling scene of reality that grips
and enthralls the hearer. ; -f
It is the glorious unfoldment of life itself through the medi
um of a tone so exquisitely pure, so transparent and crystal-clear
that no fleeting beauty of interpretation of Illusive shading of A
theme is lost when transmitted by "The One Incomparable Mus
ical Instrument.",
Superb Flexibility of Tone. No refinement that can contribute
to Its artistic perfection or completeness is missing in the Co
lumbia Grafonola. Its tone volume and tone quality may be
adapted with utmost precision to the acoustic needs of every
room and the artistic demands of every taste, by means of many
styles of needles and the exclusive system of tone-control found
in no other instrument.
Mechanical and Technical Perfection. The reproducer, dla- '
phragm, tone-arm and tone-chamber are designed . to provide a
continuous and ever-expanding passage for the sound-waves set
in motion by tbe vibrating needle-arm, uninterrupted by so much
as a screw, and scientifically correct in principle and design.
The motor is a marvel of smoothness and silence, turning
the record with a regularity of speed that holds the tone abso
lutely true to pitch without the slightest tremor and the auto
, raatic record file and ejector which stores, x cleans, and ejects
records at the touch 'of a'nunYbered button makes- the-Columbia
Grafonola supreme la convenience as well as in musical qualities.
The naturaf advantage of priority, the prestige and power
of leadership, and "the Commanding "position of the Columbia
Grafonola Company enabled it to produce an Instrument without
a peer in the qualities of technique, tone and convenience; the
instrument accepted by musicians 'the world over as the standard
and the first in judgment of experts at six world's fairs and expo-,
- sitions. ,. -r , '...,
If the verdict or the "world counts 'tor anything, -the Colom
bia Grafonola occupies a place held by no other musical instru
ment in the history of civilization. "
