Quality's Supreme Achievement
ever increasing popularity of Packard Pianos is due to their
T HE
high, dependable quality. No detail in the Packard is slighted.
The features that are hidden beneath the surface possess the same
high quality as those that can be readily seen.
Packard Pianos are made by happy, contented workmen—who put
themselves into their work—not just their time. Packard quality
starts in the minds of the men in the shop.
Be fair with yourself. Look into the Packard proposition. One of
the big things in it is Packard service—that cooperation which we
give that helps you sell pianos.
You will feel like putting your time, money, effort and enthusiasm
back of our proposition—and that's the only way to build for the
future.
Every Packard Piano you sell will prove a genuine block of
strength in the erection of your success structure. The Packard
is safe, sure and strong, and will stand the test of time. Build
right—and we'll help you build.
