A Famous Musical Ancestry

A Famous Musical Ancestry
You would not buy a fine piano, a fine

II made by concern with little or no pre-

A photograph should be similarly bought
For photograph, worthy of the name, is
also musical instrument.
The creators Of Starr Photographs and
Records have, during the past half century,
designed and constructed in excess of
l5O,OOO world-famous musical instruments.
Many have been valued at over $1,000
each. And today-in the same musical
workshops-the same skilled artisans pro-
duce Starr Photographs and Records.
Because basic laws Of musical instrument
