Dear Sir:—Sample copy of The
Talking Machine World to hand as
per request, and after carefully perus-
ing its contents I find myself com-
pelled to send you a few words to ex-
press my utter appreciation of-your
excellent magazine. No dealer in talk-
ing machines should be without it; in
fact, every owner of one should be a
subscriber to such a thoroughly inter-
esting publication. Its principal at-
tribute lies in the fact that, from cover
to cover, it is crowded with invaluable
information impossible to obtain else-
where, interesting not only to the
phonograph dealer, but to the entire
phonograph public.
Assuring you of my most sincere
wishes for its inevitable success..
I remain very truly yours,
HKNRY NKWMAN & Co.
