First and Last Word in Phonographs -- August 2, 2014
A prototype ad from the June, 1916 Edison Phonograph Monthly reminds buyers that Edison invented the phonograph. It says the Edison Diamond Amberola "absolutely matches every human quality of the actual living voice." The Amberola was a phonograph designed to play Edison's superior Blue Amberol cylinders with a diamond stylus.
"The EDISON DIAMOND AMBEROLA is not a mere 'talking machine.'" This is a dig at Edison's rival, the Victor Talking Machine Company.
