Electora is fully patented under pat-
ent No. 1,320,224 granted October
28, 1919. It nvas the first motor
of its kind marketed and has been
manufactured since February 1919.
It is no longer an experiment but is
nonv a recognised standard accessory
to the player piano. The public is
therefore fully protected.

HE complete automatic operation
of the player piano by the Electora
is the delight of the young people
and a big selling argument.
T
I r\ /HY doesn't someone invent a player piano that is actually
v J c x automatic—a complete real player?" That question has been
asked thousands of times by owners of instruments and merchants.
The Electora is the complete answer to that question. It is more than an answer, for it
makes every player piano complete—absolutely automatic—and puts volume and interpre-
tation under complete control of both the inexperienced and the trained musician, by means
of its wonderful lever-controlled throat.
And it can be installed with very little effort in your display parlors or in the owner's
home, by anyone who can handle simple tools.

There's a waiting demand for the Electora right in the home of every player piano owner
in your community.
And beside, your sales prospects on player instruments will be
multiplied when you demonstrate for your patrons an Electora equipped player piano.

for the fall and holiday trade this year.
