Vol. III. No. 8 THE PHONOSCOPE [9 PHONOGRAPH TRUISMS When a man who is famous the world over, backs the Phonograph with his name, it stands to reason it's a pretty good talking-machine. Sound principles are behind the perfect sound reproductions of genuine Edison Phonographs. Half the pleasures in Life come through the Ear. The only way to preserve these pleasures in their perfection, and to enjoy them at will is by owning a genuine Edison Phonograph. It takes only Half an Eye to recognize the superiority of genuine Edison Phonographs; they are made with accuracy and precision, to uphold the Fame of the Name of the Man who stands behind them.
