"\T7HEN THE PUBLIC was paying inflated prices for radio equipment * * in 1922, Tower inaugurated a sales policy revolutionary in the extreme. Instead of marketing a headset at a high price, the best possible pair of phones was designed, priced at less than half competitive prices, and then produced on a volume scale hitherto unknown. In an incredibly short time Tower became the world's largest exclusive manufacturer of headsets. Today, with equal foresight, confident that highest 'quality at lowest cost is forever the "best policy," Tower offers a new Cone Speaker— the outstanding value in radio reproduction with all the quality of many speakers costing two or three times as much. See and Hear the Tower Cone. On sale from coast to coast. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\K
