Crosley Trirdyn — on the Sahara Desert at midday— brings in Radio-Paris on the loud-speaker!
Not only at mid-day, but in February — in Northern Africa and far hotter than any American summer.
The picture above, a post card snap shot sent from Tunis to Mr. Crosley, by D. F. Keith of Toronto, Ontario, tells this story on the other side: —
Tunis, North Africa, March 3, 1925
Dear Mr. Crosley:
Fishing here is rotten but radio is fine. On the Sahara, using three tubes on the Trirdyn circuit, reception from Paris came through on the loud-speaker. Along the south coast of the Mediterranean, using this set, six or eight high power European stations came in with good volume by day-light and all of them after dark. Can usually get a few American after 1 a.m. Can you fish with us this year?
Cordially,
(Signed) D. F. Keith Further details on the margins of the picture: —
Sahara Desert, 250 miles south of Algiers, February, 1925. Receiving noon-day concert from "Radio Paris", Paris, using aerial and counterpoise.
Dealers who are interested in summer sales will order Crosleys at once from their jobbers.
On the Trirdyn is the beautiful new Crosley Musicone, radio's most startling development. The Musicone's abilities and its beauty are so superior that we expect it to replace half a million loud-speakers this year. $ 1 7.50.
