Read What Operators
Themselves Say About
Buckley:
L. B. WEBB, SAYS:
-"The Buckley Wall Boxes that you have sold me in the
past few months have put my operation on a very secure and
profitable basis. My customers seem to be more than pleased
with the tremendous increase in play that the Buckley Boxes have
made possible. I believe that the phonographs are on their way
out, for I have found it very difficult to secure and satisfy a good
location with a single phonograph. I feel it is very bad business
to try to hold down a location with a straight phonograph,
especially when you can place Buckley Boxes on locations and
increase your play from 300 to 600 per cent with no service calls
to worry about." Signed-L. B. Webb, Los Angeles.

-"It was indeed a lucky day for me when you sold me my
first -Buckley Wall Box installation. In the past six months you
have sold me over one thousand boxes, and these boxes have
increased the profits on my routes beyond my wildest dreams.
Although I operate other type boxes, I prefer Buckley Wall Boxes
because they have proven themselves to be trouble free and a
greater money-maker than any other box with which I have ever
had any experience. Strange as it may seem, with one Ihousand
boxes in operation, I very seldom ever have a service call."
Signed-Jimmie Alie, Los Angeles.
JOHN W. WELCH SAYS:
-"I wish to thank you for your fine Buckley Music System
just installed in one of my locations known as The Cupboard.
This spot has never grossed over twenty dollars a week and in
the last two weeks since your system was finished this spot has
done between forty and forty-five per week. I operate nearly
three hundred automatic phonographs and I believe I should
know when I have a good thing so do not hesitate to recommend
the Buckley Wall Boxes to any operator. I am arranging my
routes to cover about twenty spots with your system as soon as
possible." Signed-John W . Welch.
FRANK ROBINSON SAYS:
-"In all my years ·experience in the coin · machine industry,
I have never operated an article that has given me so little
trouble and made so much money as the Buckley Wall Boxes.
I find Buckley Wall Boxes far superior to any other type box.
They have proven to have a greater earning power than any
other box I operate or have investigated. We now have in
operation , as you probably know, 20 satisfied Buckley Locations.
A number of these locations were originally $5.00 spots and are
now $25.00, and they are really contented. It is indeed a pleasure
to check a location where you have increased their profits 500
per cent. The only complaint that I have is that all my accounts
want Buckley Boxes, and I can 't cover them fast enough. I can
assure you that you have one satisfied customer." Signed-Frank
Robinson, Los Angeles.

After all-the proof of the pudding when it comes
to music profits depends on what the operator and
tavern owner have to say! The panel at the left
reproduces a few typical comments by operators
who are boosting their business with Buckley.
Behind Buckley Wall Boxes is a proved record of
successful, trouble-free service for more than two
years. In nearly all types of spots, Buckley Boxes
have demonstrated their dependability, moderate
cost of installation, simplicity of operation, freedom
from service calls.
And remember this-when you install Buckley
Wall Boxes in your location, you have made a
PERMANENT installation, and you can make this
installation with your old PAID-FOR equipment!
From then on, you do not need to buy new phono-
graphs, year after year, and therefore, you do not
need to suffer the substantial loss incurred in depre-
ciation of new equipment.
Your present phonograph equipment, regardless
of make, model or age, can be converted into
Buckley Systems. For example, 2 paid-for 12-record
phonographs may be made into a modern 24-record
Buckley, or, a 20-record phonograph may be con-
verted into a 20-record Buckley installation. And the
average complete installation costs no more than a
single new phonograph.
Why not investigate Buckley Wall Boxes foday?
Find out for yourself how you can double and triple
revenue in your present locations and do away with
phonograph replacement that eats"up a good share
of your yearly profit.
MEL BAER SAYS:
-"It took me some time to finally make up my mind of
the advantage of Wall Box Systems. But after installing my first
two Buckley Systems I did not hesitate about furnishing eight
more of my average locations with these Buckley Wall Box
Systems. The revenue is very gratifying. I have not only satisfied
myself, but the tavern owners tell me that it is a great accommo-
dation for their customers to be sitting in their booth or at the
stools along the counter, and have a selection of music brought
right to where they are sitting. I do not hesitate to recommend
Buckley Wall Boxes to any of my friends in the music business,
and my service calls have been practically nil." Signed-Mel
Baer, Oakland .

REVIEW
On the Counter Model Phonograph which we
had here, the average gross was $5.00 a week, now
we are averaging better than $25.00 a week, and
service calls are nil.
My patrons are very pleased with the accommo-
dation of being able to play music wherever· they
are seated. It is remarkable the improvement that
has come over the old phonograph.

Company are sure on your toes in having the oppor-
tunity to handle such a good product as the Buckley
Music System. Yours truly,"-Signed-Arthur Pirro.
