Records FREE! To celebrate 25th Anniversary of Pathe The Pathe Sapphire Ball
There is no secret difference in the Pathe. The duplication instead of mere reproduction of the living voices of the artists is due to the Pathe Sapphire Ball, which fits and fills the record grooves, so always giving the full tone value without wearing out either sapphire or record. The "Scientific American" in an unsolicited article declared that "interesting comparisons of the various methods of reproduction of sound and of the various discs in use EMPHASIZE THE SUPERIORITY OF THE PATHE SAPPHIRE BALL for duplicating the actual rendition 6f the artists." The same article righdy says, "to have proper tone rendering, the stylus or needle must fit and fill the slot exactly; if too small, it will be thrown from side to side, giving false tones; if too big, it will give trouble by jamming and causing excessive wear of the record." A steel needle wears out the record as quckly as it wears itself out and never fits the slot. The Pathe Sapphire Ball never wears out and always fits and fills the slot. A S 1ALL DEPOSIT balance in small monthly payments, and you get $25.00 worth of genuine Pathe Records your own selection ABSOLUTELY FREE.
