WHAT DEALERS THINK OF PETMECKY NEEDLES:
The A. Hospe Co. of Omaha, Neb. say; — "We have tried the Petmecky needles thoroughly. Last week the writer played sixteen twelve inch red seal records with one needle and after the test the needle seemed worn but little."
The Uniqoe Talking Machine Co. of Houston, Texas, say: — "We have sold quite a few of your needles and each sale brings others. As to our opinion : we use them on all our high priced records. Did we not consider them the best we would not use them on records worth from $3 to $5."
H. A. Gtryon of Red Bank, N. J., says: — " I have done some investigating with your needles and have come to the conclusion that you have the real thing in needles. I would suggest that you retail them at 25c. per hundred. There is no use throwing a good thing away competing with the needles now on the market when none but yours will play a twelve inch record through distinctly."
The Htfff Mtfsic Co. of Bethlehem, Pa., say: — "The sample needles received. We gave them immediate trial in the presence of a number of persons and the various loud and soft effects produced by the change of fronts is marvelous."
Harry C. Lansell of Phila., Pa., says: — "Philadelphia is the home of the Victor and all improvements in anything pertaining to the talkers must have decided merits. Your needle, however, needs no explanation. It speaks for itself."
