A REVIEW OF
Gulbransen's Pageant of Progress
The Registering Piano—The startling introduction of the
Gulbransen Registering Piano is still fresh in the memory
of thousands. Undoubtedly the outstanding profit maker of
its day for piano dealers.
One Price Policy—Gulbransen pioneered the nationally
advertised one-price policy when everybody said it couldn't
be done.
'J.
Home Series Line—Which startled the piano industry with
its wonderful values—an upright at $275 and a beautiful
grand at $495. Exceptional values the results of volume
production.
The Educational Campaign—During 1929 Gulbransen
inaugurated a successful selling campaign among their
dealers which resulted in a 23% average increase in business
among the group of dealers who used the campaign.
