Columbia
USIC experts in passing judgment on the New
Columbia unhesitatingly pronounce it "great"_
great in the sense that any masterpiece is great—
great because its marvelous performance as a
music-reproducing instrument sets it apart from
all other instruments of its kind.
Five enthusiastic years have gone into the
making of the New Columbia, and a technical
knowledge and skill founded on the deepest and
broadest experience. The best engineering talent the world affords
directed its concentrated effort month after month toward the elimi
nation of certain musical defects which have been common heretofore
to all phonographs.
How successful this effort has been is demonstrated by every
New Columbia Phonograph. Go to any Columbia Dealer and ask him
to play any records you choose on any New Columbia Phonograph.
You will hear phonograph music faithful to the original rendition.
The flawless purity of tone of the New Columbia, its fidelity to the
original is amazing. Violin, piano, cello, orchestral instruments of
every kind, and the human voice—all come to you clearly and truly
in their full natural beauty of tone.
For the first time you will really enjoy phonograph music with the
keen appreciation of which only a true lover of music is capable. Let
your ears take in the subtle phrasing, the delicate shades of tone
which the Columbia alone can reproduce.
Of course, you will want your family to share in this enjoyment.
So, this Christmas, let your gift to your nearest and dearest be a
New Columbia. You may rest assured that it is the finest phonograph
your money can buy, whatever the price you wish to pay.
Technically and mechanically the New Columbia is a perfect
instrument. The new reproducer (the “voice” of a phonograph) is
a marvel of ingenuity. 491 experimental reproducers were made
before one was accepted. Now, because of this new reproducer, we
have a phonograph in which there is not the least trace of blast,
vibration, metallic tinniness, nasal intonation, false pitch, woody
boxed-in tones, or any other faults which have been characteristic
of previous phonographs.
“Shock absorbers” supporting the needle arm have conquered
vibration just as shock absorbers absorb the pounding of the road
against a car.
The new motor of the New Columbia is a mechanical marvel.
700 patents protect it both here and abroad and insure it to the ex
clusive use of Columbia. The evenness of speed in a phonograph
motor is a factor in control of pitch—and in the New Columbia motor
the speed is as rhythmic, regular, and smooth as the flight of Time
itself. Unquestionably it is the quietest, smoothest running, most
dependable motor ever put in a phonograph!
Other features exclusive to the New Columbia are the automatic
start and non-set automatic stop, a patented device tested 10,000
times before it was deemed worthy of the New Columbia. With this
device the motor starts when the tone-arm is moved over to place the
needle on the record. The record stops revolving when the music
stops. You can put on a record, go into the next room, or finish a
dance, knowing that when the music stops the record will no longer
revolve. And you don’t have to set it to make it stop exactly when
the music stops.
The New Columbia has the pipe-organ tone-control leaves (exclu
sive to Columbia) which throw the tone freely and fully instead of
straining it through interrupting fabric or lattice work
Cabinets and consoles in which the New Columbia is encased are
made of rich woods, fashioned into a simple elegance of design that
makes them exceedingly desirable from adecorative standpoint. You
will be truly proud to have any one of them in your home.
Make a visit to the establishment of any Columbia Dealer and hear
a New Columbia Phonograph—whether or not you now wish to buy.
Satisfy yourself of its merit, then when the time comes for purchase
convenient terms can be arranged or your old phonograph taken in
part payment.
