“MUSIC FROM SCOTCHER’S: Scotcher’s establishment in Corporation Street might be described as a home of home entertainment. Those who seek a piano or a radio and those after less expensive smaller instruments, gramophone records or works of music, will find an admirable variety. Well-known pianos like those of Broadwood, or Chappell or Challen, piano-players (and a selection of rolls), with other makes are on view, and in the radio department leading makers (H.M.V. and Marconi, R.G.D., Pye, Bush, &c.), are represented by sets, consoles and radiograms. Battery portables, with portable gramophones and records, are said to be increasingly popular, perhaps for use in the air raid shelter.”
