16 EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY. THAT 8-FOOT ADVERTISING HORN. The Utica Electric and Phonograph Supply House, Utica, N. Y., is meeting with much success in selling its eight-foot advertising horn. The following letter is one of those this company is constantly receiving concerning this horn : Wellsboro, Pa., Oct. 5, 1903. Utica Electric and Phonograph Supply House, 12 Pearl St., Utica, N. Y. Gentlemen : — I received the horn and attachments October 3. Have not had it put up outside yet, but have tried it inside of building and am well satisfied with the results. It is more natural than any horn I have ever tried, and I have used them all, both metal and fibre and all sizes. J. H. Smith. "COriMENTS" SELL RECORDS. Renovo, Pa., Oct. 13, 1903. I have received from you postal referring to an inquiry for Phonograph and Supplies and have forwarded letter, etc. Permit me to entend my thanks for your treatment. I consider that the system you are pursuing towards the retailer is better than that we receive from competing companies in the Talking Machine business. I have been the recipient of your various circulars, relating to price cutters. I consider your Monthly superior to the Phonogram which it succeeds. The department explanatory of new Records for current month is, to my mind, worth the price of the paper, and would suggest that if possible a circular be forwarded for distribution to customers. It would be good profitable advertising. My experience has been that upon showing the copy of the Monthly to my customers the explanation relating to new Records has been the means of selling Records and enabling a customer to make an intelligent selection. W. M. Edmondson. AN ADVERTISING IDEA. Lowell, Mass., October 9, 1903. I beg to submit the following as an advertising idea : BUY THE BEST, EDISON RECORDS HAVE STOOD THE TEST. I have had a large sign made of the above. I think the jingle is catchy, and what is more it is the truth. Thomas Wardell. SUSPENDED LIST, NOVEMBER 1, 1903.— SUPERSEDING ALL PREVIOUS LISTS. KANSAS.
