An Investment
In Happiness
TO purchase a NEW EDISON is not an ex.
ponditurc: it's an investment. It means
evenings filled with enjoyment of the world's
best music RE-CREATED so perfectly as to be
indistinguishable from the interpretation of the
living artists. And it menns evenings at home
where you don't spend a cent. To own Tho
New Edison means not only more happiness but
more money in the bank.
