The Adams Furniture Company Limited, 211-219 Yonge St., Toronto was the exclusive dealer of the Harmonola phonograph. They regularly published display ads in the Toronto Daily Star newspaper beginning on April 9, 1920. Their last ad was published in TDS on December 11, 1925. Later in the 1920s, Adams specialized in the sale of Nuphonic phonographs.
The manufacturer of the Harmonola sold by Adams is unknown. There was a Harmonola Company at the time located in Philadelphia, PA which manufactured phonographs. It is possible, but unlikely, that Adams imported its machines from this U.S. company.
