and Hear the Columbia Grafonola
While buying a phonograph is a serious business in a. way,
every dealer in Columbia Grafonolas knows how to make your
time pass pleasantly while you are in the Columbia salesrooms.
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.
Columbia Grafonolas are priced at SIS to S350
