No other phonograph even dares the test
which the New Edison underwent on Tuesday,
October 25th, before a large audience at the
Parmele Theatre.
That fact' is something for you to think
about.
The test of comparison with living artists
is the only phonograph test which means any
thing. It is the only way in which a phono
graph can irrefutably prove its realism. It is
the most drastic of all phonograph tests. To
sustain it, requires absolutely perfect realism-
nothing less.
On Tuesday, October 25th, the New Edi
son stood by Harvey Hindermyer's side at the
Parmele TJieatre. If you were there, you heard
the living voice and the Re-Created voice
brought into direct comparison. You know
there was no difference between the two voices.
A similar test was made by the Dann in
strumental trio with the same successful results.
By this wonderful performance, the New
Edison has placed itself apart from all other
phonographs and talking machines. It alone
has sustained this drastic test. It alone has
proved concretely and conclusively, that it gives
youtheiliving performances of great artists.
If NEW ED

Any Official Laboratory Model you buy in
our store will positively sustain the test made at
the Parmele Theatre. We will give you our
guarantee to that effect.
Come in and hear this instrument in some
further tests of realism. Learn that you can
have an Official Laboratory Model of your own,
on a very small cash outlay. We will make a
gentleman's agreement with any music lover.
