Dear Sir:--We've just got to tell you about the "GRAND and glorious feel-
ing" we have for our line of JESSE FRENCH GRAND pianos.
We'll just open the exhilarator and tell you the secret so you
too will catch the grand and glorious feeling-
Going into technics--Ever think how many different individuali-
ties develop a grand--Eighty different workmen have a part in perfecting
the 10., 700 pieces in a.grand piano before it is put together.
From the raw material to the finished product every craftsman
blends his best into one supreme individuality that characterizes the
different and exclusive human personality found always in our grand.
Each grand that leaves our plant has the individual stamp of our
approval which is a bulwark for the retail fraternity handling our popu-
lar line and for the music loving public who install a -JESSE FRENCH GRAND
•in their home--and as you know Jesse French pianos are found the "world
o'er."
Mr. Piano merchant, it is easy to point out distinctive features
to your customers, when selling our pianos. Write us for information
about our line todaj.
Yours for increased sal-es,
JESSE FRENCH & SONS PIANO CO.
