A N you remember \vay back in the eighties
-when horsecars were common ?... when bicy'
cles were the pastime of the elite?
when
the telephone and the electric light were novelties
and the automobile unknown?
It was in those early days—in 1880 to be exact—that the A.
Gressett Music House of Meridian, Mississippi, commenced
selling Cable-made Pianos. Consistently, for nearly half a
century since, Cable-made Pianos have played an important
role in the steady progress of this old-established music house.
The accompanying expression of confidence, received re-
cently from the A. Gressett Music House bespeaks volumes
for Cable Quality, Value and Service. And between the
lines, one can read a history of years of profit and satis-
faction—a testimony to the intrinsic worth of the Cable
Dealer Franchise.
