Buying a Phonogra

the Columbia Way

You enter the store. You are courteously welcomed. You play as many records of your own selection as you wish on different Columbia models. You ask questions about phonographs. These are answered to your entire satisfaction. The more questions vou ask about the Grafonola the better the dealer likes it. First and all the time the Columbia dealer impresses you with this thought after all, what , you are buying is just plain phonograph satisfaction. Sensible, isn't it?

The instrument you want in your home is the instrument that plays the kind of music you like best in exactly the way you like to have it played. The only way to determine this is to test the Columbia Grafonola in your own home. Have the dealer send a Columbia Grafonola on trial and put the issue squarely up to the instrument this is the best way to buy phonograph satisfaction. It Is in direct comparison that Columbia Grafonolas appear at their best.

Columbia Grafonolas are made in a large number of models, with the widest range of prices in the phonograph field.
