Edison had spent three million dol- lars in perfecting the phono graph which bears his name, he called in the great artists who sang and played for him. He asked them to go out to the music centres of the country and let the people judge for themselves that the New Edison Phono- graph would RE-CREATE music. Two million people have heard these tone - tests, The critics of upward of 1,500 newspapers in United States and Canada attended and were unani- mously agreed that no dif- ference could be detected be- tween the artists’ voices and Re-Creation of them. Read what the critic of the Boston Herald wrote: “Just how true and faithful j is this Re-Creation of the human voice was best illustrated when Miss Miller sang a duet with herself, it being impossible to distinguish between the singer's living voice and its Re-Creation by the musical instrument that bears the stamp of Edison’s genius. . . .
