You buy a phonograph for your home, and you should feel at home when you are shopping for one. Go to the Columbia dealer's and make yourself at home. Play the instrument as if it were your own. Ask fonany record in the list as if you'owned-them all. Play the ones you like as often as you feel inclined to. Walk right up to the Columbia Grafonola, wind it, change the needles, regulate the tone-leaves you will find them only on the Cglumbia Grafonola. Put on and take off the records and dont be afraid of hurting the instrument. While the salesman will do all this for you if you want him to, he will be happy to have you learn to operate the Columbia then and there. Take all the time you want. If you should prefer to make up your mind about buying at home, an instrument will be sent to your home for you to try. There is no charge for this. No obligation to buy is incurred. Know the Columbia. Get acquainted with it, ask questions about Tt, take your time, and the experience of buying a phono graph will be one you'll always look back upon with pleasure.
