Promiseth rans to debt and a new graphophone
An OCR riddled notice touts a $25 graphophone using large and small cylinders with a dial speed indicator. It claims cost savings, wider selection, and compatibility with Grand records, from the Columbia Phonograph Co. in Baltimore. Also advertised are cold remedies, tonics, and a travel booklet on winter resorts, with various medical ads and product pitches throughout.
