THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD
February 15, 1922
HALLET & DAVIS IN HARTFORD
Open Attractively Equipped Talking Machine and Piano Warerooms on Asylum Street — Will Feature Brunswick Phonographs and Records in Artistically Arranged Quarters
Hartford, Conn., February 9. — The Hallet & Davis Co., well known in New England as piano and talking machine merchants and who conduct a prosperous establishment in Boston, have recently acquired one of the most desirable locations in this city, where they have opened a very attractive talking machine store. This new store is located on Asylum street, in the heart of the retail business section, and two entire floors will be occupied, which have been equipped with the most modern fixtures, designed to harmonize with the general s#heme of
decorations. Two large show windows have been specially constructed, which reflect the high-class character of the store. The second floor, according to present plans, is to be devoted to a spacious concert hall, where artists well known in the talking machine trade will be heard from time to time, a feature that has never been promoted to any extent in this city and one which will greatly interest patrons.
This beautiful new store will feature Brunswick phonographs and records exclusively, which will give this company one of the most up-to-date and most progressive representations in the East. Chester Abelowitz, of the New York Brunswick office, negotiated this important deal, and it is one more addition to the already large list of notable agencies opened by his efforts since becoming a member of the Brunswick organization.
ORDER 500 SHELTON ELECTRICS
International General Electric Places Order for Shipment to South America
The Shelton electric motor is growing steadily in popularity, not only in this country but in many foreign lands as well. W. Gentry Shelton, president of the Shelton Electric Co., New York City, recently received an order from the International General Electric Co. to ship 500 of these electric phonograph motors to South America. The shipment was made in record time and is expected to be the forerunner of big business south of the equator.
A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed hopeless failure may turn to glorious success.
