"THE ROLL
OF HONOR**
HE ROLL OF HONOR
(TRADE MARK RKO, U. m. AND CANADA)
Would you buy clothes oftener or wear them
longer—if ready-made suits were priced 66f % higher
to enable the manufacturers to take back dealers' un-
sold stocks? $1.25 word rolls cost 66f % more than U. S.
Words Rolls at 75c.
Player rolls are the very life of the player industry.
Aren't you really paying for the unlimited return
privilege, instead of the player owners, through lost
player and roll sales and needless repossessions? U. S.
WORD ROLLS AT 75c ARE PRICED TO SELL!
U. S. Rolls Are Not Competitive!
Neither Dealers in Nor Makers of Musical Instruments Are
Financially Interested in the Manufacture of U. S. Rolls.

STARR PIANOS for over half a century have represented highest ideals
of craftsmanship. Each Starr Made Grand, Playerpiano and Upright
represents a value known the world over.
STARR PHONOGRAPHS, from the smallest table style to the elaborate
console model possess musical worth which is the result of a careful
co-ordination of each part into a perfect symmetry.
GENNETT RECORDS represent the highest attainment in the art of
sound recording. Their variety, perfect reproduction and real musician-
ship of the artists have made them musical gems of rarest charm.
