The Victrola in Americanization

192019778Camden NJ: Victor Talking Machine Company 1920. This promotional booklet for the Victor Talking Machine Company argues for the use of music to help recent immigrants assimilate into American society.

Here she asserts that "a great movement is now sweeping the country to bring securely into the fold of American citizenry our adopted brothers from other lands -- to make firm and lasting ties that bind them to their new homeland." Traditional American music can forge those bonds for "nothing is more unifying and democratic than the group singing of old familiar and patriotic songs."

Victor record numbers are conveniently provided next to each reference so the newly appreciative public may listen for themselves. 5 x 7.25 inches 38 pp with halftone photographic illustrations.
