Announcement
to the trade—
^
A. B. Chase-Emerson Corporation announces the estab-
lishment of a Boat Division in their factories at Norwalk, Ohio,
for the manufacture of Chase-Emerson Outboard Motor Boats.
believe this announcement to be of vital interest and im-
portance to every piano dealer in America.
To the best of our knowledge this is the first
step taken by any manufacturer of pianos for
the solution of the problem on which the
future of xhz trade hangs: (1) the maintain-
ing of a sound, stable, dependable organiza-
tion throughout the year; (2) to keep such an
organization intact without altering the proper
relationship between overhead costs and pro-
duction; (3) thus to assure dealers and the
public the same standards of quality and
service they have always known.
It is our good fortune to report that 1928
has been a satisfactory year for the A. B.
Chase-Emerson Corporation in spite of ad-
mittedly adverse trade conditions. It is also
our pleasurable privilege to announce that
Chase-Emerson Boats created something of a
sensation at the Motor Boat Show in Grand
Central Palace, New York, and that volume
production is now virtually assured during the
spring and early summer months. It is hardly
necessary to point out that the peaks of boat
production and piano production fall at the
opposite ends of the calendar year and that the
two products are ideally complementary to each
other.
Consequently 1929 looms forward with par-
ticular promise. Dealers not now selling the
A. B. Chase-Emerson or Lindeman & Sons
Pianos will doubtless be interested in receiving
franchise information. . . .for here is definite
assurance that A. B. Chase-Emerson will
"carry on" whatever conditions may be during
the readjustment period in the trade.
Then, too, many dealers will also find that
Outboard Motor Boats offer a very profitable
and complementary field to the piano business.
We shall be glad to forward franchise infor-
mation on Chase-Emerson Outboard Motor
Boats, too.
Inquiries of whatever nature will be answered promptly
