THE

DECCA PORTROLA

A completo. all electric radio-gram in the compass of an ordinary acoustic portable. Something that- until the introduction of this truly remarkable little instrument was considered out of the question. But the seemingly impossible has been accomplished and DECCA— the inventors of the first acoustic portable-now introduce the world's first portable radio-gram.

A marvel of ingenuity, the 'Portrola' is distinguished not merely for its portability and novelty, but it really is a highly efficient radio-gram, giving superlative results on radio or records and challenging favourable comparison with most multi-valve receivers.
