64 THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD. tr MULTIPHONES TO BE SOLD THE MULTIPHONE 7 feet high, 3'.> feet wide, 18 inches deep Multiphones are now for the first time offered for sale outright. Heretofore they have been rented out on commission. The Multiphone has a large magazine wheel carrying 24 records. Either Edison, Columbia or indestructible records may be used. The instrument is purely automatic, and operates for a nickel. A spring motor supplies the power. One winding is sufficient to reproduce from 20 to 25 records. The Multiphone can also be adjusted in a moment to automatically play all of the 24 records, passing automatically from one to the next without any attention other than winding at the start. The cabinet is furnished in solid mahogany or bronze. All exposed parts are nickeled, and are reflected in a fine French plate-glass mirror at the rear. The horn is concealed. There is no slot machine manufactured that compares with the Multiphone in earning capacity. None approaches it in perfection of mechanical construction. Persons desiring to buy and operate a number of Multiphones, or to form subsidiary companies, will be protected in their territory. If you want to make an investment that will pay you an exceedingly handsome return, we will make you an interesting proposition. MULTIPHONE OPERATING CO. 141 BROADWAY Near Liberty Street NEW YORK CITY
