Orthophonic Victrola
Five, ten, twenty or thirty couple*—
all dancing their best and their gayest
—can’t drown out the beating rhythms
of the New Orthophonic Victrola. The
double basses, the steady notes of the
drums, the dynamic tubas, are repro
duced in full power. Let us demon
strate. Come in any time. The Con
solette, illustrated above, is only one
of the four beautiful models.
