ONE can doubt that new life, new interests and new vitality have enlivened the phonograph trade
as a whole and have already redounded to the benefit of the dealer who has awakened to the
situation. Today among music lovers the impetus is to see what is new. They judge altogether by new
standards—new designs, new finishes, new equipment, new tone and new results. The Starr Lsosonic Acoustical
Phonograph is an embodiment of every new feature demanded by the public today.
It presents itself as offering the immediate appeal of the newest and we believe the best in design, tone, and
genuine quality throughout, each of which is a qualification that has always characterized products of Starr
origin. Coming from an organization the size and standing of Starr, the announcement of a new phonograph is
doubly significant because in such an instrument are represented the skill, the resources, and the experience of
an organization of over fifty-five years standing.
It is an axiom that the old reliable concern is the one which fulfills the demand for dependable merchandise.
If you desire to stand ready to meet this new business, to develop a dealership that will be successful and per-
manent, to offer goods backed by an organization with over a half century's square business dealing behind it,
investigate the new Starr lsosonic Acoustical Phonograph and its many possibilities with which to adequately
meet the healthy new trade situation
Every resource of material and artistic skill has been utilized
to make in the new Starr lsosonic Phonograph an instrument
of perfect quality throughout. We believe that so great is
the originality and uniqueness in tonal achievement and design
and appointments that the Starr is without peer in this field.
