Fidelity of Tone Musically cultured people prefer Stromberg- Carlson Receivers. Those who appreciate fine violins, grand pianos, hoxes at the opera and season tickets to concert courses know what well-played instruments sound like. They wish to appraise the playing of Hofl- man, the singing of Homer, the technique of Seidel as accurately by radio as though seated before them. They prefer a Stromberg-Carlson Receiver be- cause of its faithful tone reproduction. This fidelity of tone is due in large measure to “Rejectivity,” an exclusive Stromberg-Carlson feature, made possible by totally shielding each radio frequency circuit. Any authorized dealer will gladly demonstrate the difference between tone which merely approx- imates broadcasting and tone which duplicates it —Stromberg-Carlson tone.

Any set made today may function eatisfactorily in the hands of expert radio salesmen. but you want a Radio that will “stand up™ and function for YOU—for weeks. months and years.
