The Talking Machine World, New York, March, 1928 57 Here's Why the Junior Makes Any Portable Better— THE new improved Junior Motor is the smaller edition or the famous Flyer Motor. It is the ideal motor for smaller, lighter portable phonographs because — Made Like a Watch Every part is made of the finest materials, as precisely made and as carefully inspected as though it were for a fine watch. Gears are cut on special gear-hobbing machines. These machines make gears so much better, so much more true than has ever before been possible that large concerns in many lines are asking us to cut gears for them. This is cited only as an example — every part of the Junior is made with the same unusual care and precision. Noiseless Before it can come to you in a portable, a Junior must pass the Listening Test. It is run without a record, on a special sound box which magnifies any sound many times. If either of two experts can notice the slightest sound, the entire motor is rejected. Exclusive Design The lunior is the result of 12 years' experience in motor design and manufacture. Only the Junior (and its bigger brother, the Flyer) can offer the sturdy construction, the freedom from vibration and noise, the long life which these motors assure. No wonder the great majority of all portables sold are equipped with junior or Flyer Motors. Dealers know that these motors mean easier sales, more satisfied customers and no returns.
