If you are a Gulbransen dealer, you are to be congratulated-you
have the advantage of selling Player Pianos that have been ad­
vertised year in and year out. Through advertising in Successful
Farming and other publications, the Gulbransen-Dickinson Co.
have made their Player Pianos favorably known among the most
progressive farmers. Best of all, Gulbransen-Dickinson keep at it.
They do not rely n1erely upon their standing in the trade or past
reputation for this year's business, but use liberal space to sustain
the goodwill established by fair dealing and the merit of their pro­
ducts. Farmers have confidenr.:e in Player Pianos they know about,
and more than 850,000 "farmers actually engaged in farming" are
being told about Gulbransen Players every month through Suc­
cessful Farming alone.
Successful Farming Advertising
Helps Yon to Sell
Gulbransen adverti sing in S uccessf ul Farmin g shows d ea rl y the featm es
which disting ui sh Gu lbra nsen Player P ianos. T hi s makes it easier for YOlI
to sell them . Your time is saved. The me rit of the merchandi se is
established and maintained in the mind of the prospect.
Each month more than SSO,OOO farm falll ili e~ turn to thi s fal'o rit e farm
paper of their s for defi nite ad vice rega rding farm methods. They read
the advert isements for inf ormation about products of all ki nd s that will
add to convenience, in crease profit or plea sure. \;Vhen they cOlll e to hu y,
it is natural to gil'e 1110st favorable consid erati on to t hings tbey know

Distribution
They know that the better the farm er unde rstand s the ach'anta ges II [
Gulbransen Player Pianos, the fa ster you will be able to sell them . That
is the reason they use S uccessf ul Farming to car ry their message to
farmer s.
Gulbransen-Di ckin son long ago investigated a nd founcl, as man y other
man ufacturer s ha ve cl one. tha t S uccessf ul Fanni ng is an il1lpurtant factor
where there is genera l fa rming. In their ow n in terest they advertise to
help move their products off yo ur hand s, because P laye r Pia nos are nut
really sold until they a re being enjoyed hy pleased custome rs.
The reputati on of Gulbran sen Player Pianos , sustained throug h advertising,
plus your standing in the comm unity, make the business-getting combi na­
tion that sells these in strum ents to farm ers.
