q l OUR SUCCESS IS NOT DUE ' = TO THE PROFIT WE MAKE l BUT TO THE SERVICE WE GIVE I ER BARKER BARKER BARKER BARKER BARKER Mlle. Verlet of the Paris Opera, famed Belgian Coloratura- Soprano, is but one of the many great artists who have proved by direct comparison that Edison’s new art re-creates all forms of music so exactly th?.t.;l;f Re-Creation cannot be detected from the original. No! Your neighbor could not tell which is the real voice of Mile. Verlet. If Alice Verlet, of the Paris Opera, stood on your verandah, or near an open window, and sang in direct comparison with Edison’s Re-Creation of her voice, your neighbors coild not distinguish one from the other—nor could you, unless you watched Mlle. Verlet’s lip. This is no empty assertion. It can be proven by the musical critics of leading American news- papers who have heard the test made. A book- let containing their critiques will be furnished on request. The New Edison is not a talking machine. It embodies a new art where- by all forms of music are actually re-created. Itis not alone Alice Verlet’s voice which is re-created. No voice is beyond this new art. Come to us and hear Edison’s Re-Creation of the work of the world’s great singers and instru- mentalists.
