Announcement was recently
made by M. G. Hammergren,
general sales manager of the
Rudolph Wurlitzer Company of
the appointment of Mayflower
Distributing Company to handle
distribution and sale of Wurlit­
zer phonographs in the Buffalo
area.
Coincidental with this an­
nouncement came one by Sam
Taran, Mayflower owner, that
Ray Peterson would serve as
manager of the Buffalo office of
this concern, which also distrib­
utes Wurlitzers in Pittsburgh.
First pictures available of the
new quarters are published here.
Located at 350 Delaware Ave­
nue, they are unusually attrac­
tive, featuring a front in keep­
ing with the location of the
establishment and an interior
distinguished by mural treat­
ment on the walls.
Also assisting in the operation
of the business is Art O’Mealia,
known to Buffalo music mer­
chants along with Ray Peterson
as a couple of gentlemen who
know the music business from
sales to service as few do.
Initial re p o rts from May­
flower officials carry a high de­
gree of enthusiasm, and include
sales figures that indicate a
great future for the newly
formed organization.
