The New Edison
Diamond Disc Phonograph
What other phonograph has stood the
test of comparing the artist's voice
with the record of that voice! Only
Mr. Edison has dared to make this
comparison. And of over 300,000
persons who heard both side by side
not one could detect a difference.
We invite you to hear music of a quality you never
expected to come from a phonograph Music's
