A Faithful Reflection
of Christine Miller
Just as the clear surface of a quiet pool
mirrors the image above it so does this
marvelous Instrument reflect with com
plete fidelity the voices of the Edison art
ists. So perfect and satisfying are the Be
Creations that no human ear can detect n
shade of difference between the perform
ances of the artists and those of
The NEW EDISON
"The Phonograph with a Soul."
Over two million people have attended our
famous tone tests in which the artist
was pitted against the instrument. And
not once has the New Edison failed to
meet this searching test: definitely con
vincingly conclusively.
Call at our store for a demonstration.
