i'ECIFICATIONS for the 1920 models of Silvertone phonographs were prepared with the sole
idea of maintaining the established high standard of Silvertone quality, in spite of ever in
creasing difficulties in manufacturing. Every mechanical and. acoustical refinement which*
experience had proved desirable was incorporated in the new Silvertone. The same care in the selec
tion of only the finest cabinet w oods, and the same high quality of workmanship and finish which has
always characterized Silvertone phonographs has been rigidly adhered to in the construction of the
1920 models. It is indeed the masterpiece of Silvertone quality.
Quantity production, efficient manufacturing methods, and our economical mode of selling have
enabled us to combine this high standard of quality with prices which are from 25 per cent to 50 per *
cent below those of any other phonograph of the same size, mechanical perfection and musical excel
lence. We want to convince you of the truth of our claims for the Silvertone. We want you to try a
, Silvertone in your own home, the only place where a musical instrument can be given a satisfactory
and convincing test. That is why we are making this liberal offer: ’ >
No Money Down-—Two Weeks’ Trial
Select any Silvertone phonograph shown on this page,
fill in the order blank at the bottom of this page, and mail
it to Sears, Roebuck and Co., Chicago, 111. Send no
money with it! We ship Silvertone phonographs on two
weeks’ trial. This trial will not cost you one cent, nor
obligate you in any way. All we ask you to do is to give
the phonograph a thorough trial. Examine its mechanical
features, cabinet work and finish. Try it with any kind of
disc records you desire, and note its beauty of tone, how*
faithfully and accurately it restores every delicate shading
of tone quality, every minute variation of volume, every
r sound vibration. Give it every test necessary to prove the
truth of our claims for it. And then compare the price of
the Silvertone With that of any other phonograph of the
same size, quality and musical excellence. If, at the end
of this two weeks* trial, you are not fully satisfied with the
phonograph, if you do not believe that mechanically,
musically, and in workmanship, material and finish, it is
the equal of any other phonograph on the market selling
at from 25 per cent to 50 per cent higher prices, simply
