Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13 1/2″ ad for their RCA Victor Record Player that was designed to “play records through your Radio”. There is a picture of one of these units sitting on a table next to a Floor Model Radio and a hand has reached into the picture and is placing the tone arm of the record player on another popular record. Not only could you now play records with a minimal expenditure but the ad claims that this “New $14.95 instrument yours – without cost when you join Victor Record Society“. The text explains that the RCA Victor Record Player Model R-93B would be yours free of cost, considering the other things you would have to buy, and gives more details about what items you would receive and what you had to do to join the Victor Record Society. The text also explains how this amazing item was able to work and spoke more about the kind of records that were available, and that you would have to buy from.
