Using a B&O stereo gramophone with the new stereo pickup and stereo speakers, Katy Bødtger -the first national stereophonic singing star- listens to the results (of her recording session) from London.

Even when Katy Bødtger's busy life calls for a visit to the hairdresser to style her frisky locks before the evening's performance, her indispensable B&O Beolit all-transistor reciever is always nearby.

The sweet and fresh Katy Bødtger, who provided the vocals for the new B&O stereophonic test record, has sung her way to success in only 2 years

Many thanks to Ben Cahill for sending this in and for the translation from Danish.
