PHILCO ANNOUNCES a new car radio

The Perfect Coach Radio

Passengers will wait to travel on the radio-equipped coach. It relieves the boredom of long trips—gives them news, music, entertainment as they ride. And radio is the mark of the most up-to-the-minute coach proprietor.

More than 700 coach proprietors have already installed Philco radio.

The Model 1803 T receiver is equipped with extension speaker for coach installation. Price 20 guineas.

N.B.—Special arrangements made by Philco enable Philco-equipped coaches to broadcast the copyright News Bulletin to their passengers.
