MUSIC'S RE-CREATION

A. EDISON'S genius and
$3,000,000 of his money, courageously
spent in research work, have recently given
to the world an instrument which literally
Re-Creates all forms of music. To prove
that this is true, Marie Rappold, Anna Case,
Arthur Middleton and eighteen other great
artists have stood beside this new invention
and sung in direct comparison with its Re-
Creation of their Voices. Three hundred
thousand music lovers have heard these as-
tonishing tests and they, as well as the music
critics of nearly three hun-
dred of America's principal
newspapers, concede with-
out reservation or qualifica-
tion that the New Edison's
Re-Creation of an artist's
voice cannot be detected
from the original. Instru-
mentalists have made similar
tests with similar results.
Edison has accomplished the
miracle of Music's Re-Cre-
ation.
It is not surpising that there
should be a demand for cab-
inets as much superior, in a
furniture sense, to familiar
kinds of talking machine
cabinets as the New Edison
is superior,in a musical sense,
to all other devices for the
reproduction of m u s i c a l
sounds. A competition was
held among designers, and
two master craftsmen were
selected, who have produced
what are not alone the finest
phonograph cabinets in the
world, but also deserve to
take place with the finest fur-
niture of any description to
be found in America. The
cabinet illustrated on this
page gives but a faint idea of
these wonderful cases.
