1 ADY Randolph Churchill is England’s greatest 
J authority on furniture. Her home is the best 
furnished house in London. 
Lady Churchill saw the Edison Period 
Cabinets. Immediately she wrote: 
(Her Letter) 
“What an extraordinary man Mr. Edison is! He perfects 
his phonograph to a pomt where its realism is astounding. 
Then he determines to make each Edison Phonograph, even 
the least costly an attractive piece of furniture. Instead of 
the usual dentistdi\e looking cabinet, his designers have 
succeeded in putting the character and feeling of the best 
periods into his phonograph cases. These graceful and ar' 
tistic productions will be hailed with delight by all who can 
afford them, and will cause Mr. Edison’s new phonograph 
to be received in many houses where less worthy machines 
have not been welcomed heretofore.” 
These Edison Period Cabinets are American adapta- 
tions of Europe’s richest furniture treasures. This 
letter is the Old World’s stamp of approval on the

achievement of Edison’s American de- 
signers and craftsmen. 
B UT Lady Churchill has overlooked the 
second great part of Edison’s purpose. 
She has received the impression that these 
cabinets are only for the well-to-do. Noth- t 
ing could be farther from the fact. Edison 
has developed an authentic period cabinet 
for each New Edison,—even the lowest 
priced models. Isn’t this exactly what you would 
have expected of the man who spent three million 
dollars in order to give the world his musical ideal, 
—the Official Laboratory Model ? 
T HE New Edison is truly the phonograph of two 
arts. It brings you the world’s noblest music, 
Re-Created in all its beauty 
and soul. It brings you the 
world’s purest furniture art 
perpetuated in furniture which 
will enrich your home forever. 
See the different period de¬ 
signs. Hear the wonder of 
Re-Created Music. If no Edi¬ 
son dealer is near you, write 
for the beautiful new book, “Edison and Misic.
