MUSIC TRADE: REVIEW
A NEW PRINCIPLE
The Mechanical Feed is Used Exclusively on the New Taper Arm
TALK-O-PHONE
HE reproducer on all disc
record machines has here-
tofore been dragged across
the record by the needle,
which always produced the grating,
grinding sound, so obnoxious. To
do away with this unpleasant noise
and reproduce only the pure musical
tones, we have perfected, and now
supply on all Talk-O-Phones, our
new mechanical feed device This is
an arrangement, shown on cut, which
propels the tapering arm across the
record entirely independent of the
action of the needle. One can ap-
preciate the great difference in tone
resulting from this. In addition to
the entire freedom from the grating
sound, this new device is a great
record saver, and increases the life
of the record one hundred per cent.
T
All new Talk-O-Phones are also
equipped with the taper arm, as
illustrated :
NOTE
It will be observed that the new Talk-
O-Phone operated on this principle gets
entirely away from the old fundamental
principle of reproducing machines, name-
ly, the needle feed Our patents on this
new device are very broad, and this
arrangement cannot be used on another
machine. We do not operate under any
shop rights or license from any one.
Dealers selling reproducing machines should write immediately for our full descriptive matter and for prices on
the new Talk-O-Phone.
If you are interested in supplying your customers with the only machine which brings out from disc records the
pure musical tone only, you must have a sample of this new Talk-O-Phone.
