Description
Full color 9 1/2″ x 12″ ad for the Cobra Tone Arm that is being installed on their phonographs. The ad has a picture of a well-dressed couple gathered around their Model 12H090 Console that was sold for $375. The ad headline states “America amazed at tone difference in records played with the Cobra Tone Arm“. Talking about the features of this unit it claims that it “Reproduces records via Radionic Wave’, that it “Floats lightest on the record…only 2/3 of an ounce”, that it is “Foolproof! You can drop the Cobra, even scrape it across the records”, it has a “New Silent-Speed record changer” and it has a “..Genuine Armstrong FM Radio”. This ad is larger than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
