Description
Black and white 4 1/2″ x 12″ ad for the RCA Victrola and their records. The top of the ad has pictures of artists Igor Gorin, Kirsten Flagstad, Lauritz Melchior, Richard Crooks as well as a picture of Nelson Eddy and Jeannette MacDonald from the movie Rose Marie. The headline claims that these are “Yours for Keeps on Victor Records. The songs you love to hear, sung by the world’s greatest artists”. The ad has a picture of a console Victrola which could have been yours for a price of $175 which would also have gotten you $9.00 worth of Victor Records. Lower in the ad is a picture of their RCA Victrola attachment which would attach to your radio and allow you to play records. This item, normally priced at $25.95, could now be yours for $14.95. This ad is taller than my scanner bed so the outer edges of the ad will not be visible in the scanned view.
