A MUSICAL PEN
Have you ever heard of one? If you have a gramophone you should have done, for this music pen is the super gramophone needle—its proper name being Tone Pen, and it is a tiny hollow pen of specially tempered metal. The reason why the Tone Pen is hollow is important. The solid needle dulls the tone, and after a while wears out the record.
The hollowness of the Tone Pen enables it to translate the most exquisite and delicate tones. By fixing the Tone Pen point outwards you get the greatest volume of sound, by turning it sideways you get a softer, mellower tone.
And, above all, you can play from 80 to 100 records with one Tone Pen. You can keep the gramophone going the whole evening without bothering to change the needle. You have to change the ordinary needle with every record. That means constant jumping up and down and fiddling with the gramophone. The Tone Pen saves you, saves your gramophone, gets the very best out of the records, and makes the words of songs beautifully clear, which are often unintelligible with other needles.
THREE TONE PENS ARE EQUAL TO THREE HUNDRED ORDINARY NEEDLES, AND ONLY COST ONE SHILLING THE CARD OF THREE
