Extraordinary interest attaches to the concert
of these famous artists because of the opportu-
nity it affords the musioloving public to compare
their interpretations with their Victor Records.
Attend the concert ef these artists and v note the qualities
that distinguish their rrehditions.v Then go to any Victor dealer's
and hear the Victor Records by the same artists. Note how
f aithfully their interpretations are portrayed on me Victrola.
' ' It is because o! this alsolute fidelity that they xriake i Victor-
Records; that the world's greatest artists are Victor artists '
Victrolas in great variety vof styles from $25 to ' $1500.
