The Talking Machine World, New York, March, 1928 71 A BATTERY ELIMINATOR A. C. Operation! The Question Facing Three Million Set Owners Answer it with Abox and balance your 1928 business with profitable cash sales! THERE are two definite sides to the A. C. market. To think of it only in terms of selling A. C. receivers to everyone, will result in turning customers away whose trade will represent in the aggregate, millions of dollars this year — in cash at time of purchase! Reliable figures show that there are approximately 7,500,000 receivers of all kinds in the hands of the public. Of this total, there are at present approximately 550,000 A. C. tube sets and 2,000,000 users of other forms of current supply. This leaves, not counting farm owned sets, almost 3,000,000 radio set owners for whom ABOX is the logical and only practical method of conversion to power direct from the light socket. $32.50 will solve their problem permanently and with the utmost satisfaction. There is no reason for them to pay more or to sacrifice their present radio investment to get the results they want. Be prepared to serve the set owners in your community who are waiting to pay you a cash profit for ABOX. Be in position to make a sale to everyone who comes to your store for the answer to the A. C. question. The /IbOX Company 215 North Michigan Avenue Chicago, Illinois 4-Volt ABOX Eliminator A new model for sets using 4volt tubes. Fits Radiola battery compartment.
