The Stradavaria Phonograph has a pat ented spruce w ood horn that w ill respond to the so ftest note, and this patent is abso lutely protected. C h as.

The Stradavaria is made on the same principle as the violin and named after “Stradavarius” the fam ous old Italian violin maker. To convince you, just come in and let us demon strate the greatest authors, such as Caruso, McCor mack, Kreisler, Alda, Lauder, Powell, Elman and others. These world famous musicians are only fully appreciated when played on the Stradavaria. F lo y d L.
