HMV Re-Entrant advertisement

Post by Lenoirstreetguy »

This is how to spend a chilly evening: by the fireside with a 202 Re-entrant, a whiskey and your faithful terrier : asleep instead of peering into the horn.

Thanks for posting this Jim. It's always great to see original advertising for the Re-entrant range.
One correction I have to make though- This is actually the smaller 193 re-entrant.
If you compare the door design from the ad & the picture of my 202 below, you'll see the difference between the two machines.

You're so right! That's the 202 look alike. I will take either or both, please . ;) These machines feature fast and furious in the ads for only two years because by 1930 HMV began to primarily feature the electric machines in their publicity. Not exclusively though...I have some neat early 30's stuff which I'll post ere long.
