REVIEW
NEW FEIST MUSIC IN LARGER SIZE
Latest Edition More Readable Than the Recent
War Edition Issued by That House, But Still
Permits the Observance of Economies
Tack It Up!
CENTURY'S TRADE MARK ON A
SHEET OF MUSIC is a symbol of recognized
superiority that will increase "YOUR" pres-
tige and your customers.
The Thousands of Dollars now being
spent in telling millions of readers of leading
magazines that their dealer carries "CEN-
TIKY EDITION" makes it all the more im-
portant that you tack up the Century Shingle
and let your trade know you have it.
Be the first to introduce it—Don't wait
till your competitor "beats you to it."
Leo Feist, Inc., who introduced the war edi-
tion of sheet music a year or so ago when strict
conservation was the rule, have, now that the
necessity for rigid economy in paper has passed,
introduced a new post-war size for their sheet
music, somewhat smaller than the 9% by 12)4
size recommended by the National Association
ot Sheet Music Dealers, but nevertheless dis-
tinctly attractive and readable.
The new size, although considerably larger
than the war edition, is nevertheless designed
to enable the publishers still to enjoy a number
of printing economies, eight copies of the music
being printed at one time, as compared with
four copies of the larger sheets.
The first numbers in the new size were re
leased late this week, they being "Jerry," a new
number by Billy Baskette, "When the Fighting
Irish Come Home," "Heart-Breaking Babj.
Doll" and "Anything Is Nice If It Comes From
Dixieland."
