These features have been kept prominently to the forefront in all experiments, and our efforts have been centered on combining them with the same sonorous, loud, clear and musical tone which has distinguished the wonderful type of Graphophone Grands which have lately been so enormously successful. We are now glad to be able to announce to our customers perhaps the most important step which has ever been taken in the presentation of sound recordings. The mechanism is contained in a handsomely designed quarter sawed highly polished oak cabinet made up in appropriate and decorated design supported at corners by Gothic pillars and beautifully fluted, ornamented solid base, supported on solid rubber cushions to prevent reverberation and secure resonance of sound. Ornamented metal carrying handle, heavy solid steel bed to support records providing for absolutely true running of the record and preventing any variation of sound. All exposed metal parts, speed adjuster, arm holder, horn support and sound box highly nickel plated.
All gears are machine cut and simplicity and durability are considered in every detail.
It is made as accurately as a scientific instrument and will appeal to all users of talking machines as much for its mechanical perfection as for any other reason. The ease with which the spring motor is accessible so that it may be oiled, examined and inspected at any time is demonstrated by the cut below which shows the machine open and ready for examination. The cost of repairs, if any should be needed, is thus reduced to a minimum. For exhibition this machine has never been equaled. The instrument itself is so well and substantially made that it can be carried from place to place without the slightest danger of breakage or derangement.
