HANDCRAFT LINE A HIT
Good Sales and Very Effective Publicity Results
Reported by Martin Band Instrument Co.
The combination of Martin Handcraft Band
Instruments and Bacon Banjos d i s p l a y e d by
The Chicago Musical Instrument Company at the
Drake Hotel during last week's convention proved
an irresistible magnet to hundreds of the dealers who
attended.
A full line of Martin Handcraft Instruments were
on display, most of them beautifully finished in gold.
The instruments were shown against a background
of silk plush and the result was a most pleasing one.
O. P. Bassett, general manager of The Martin Band
Instrument Company, of Elkhart, Ind., and Fred A.
Holts, manager of the sales and advertising, spent
considerable time in Chicago during the conven-
tion and report it by far the most successful meet-
ing of its kind ever held. Not only was there pres-
ent a feeling of utmost good will among dealers and
manufacturers, but there was also a good volume of
actual buying, according to the Martin officials.
D. L. Day, of the Bacon Banjo Company, Inc.,
was also in attendance during the convention and was
highly pleased with the results. The complete line
of Bacon banjos was shown including the wonderful
new Ne Plus Ultra instrument.
The Chicago Musical Instrument Company, which
staged the display of Martin and Bacon instruments,
is also distributor for a number of other standard
lines including Ludwig drums, C. F. Martin string
instruments, Hohner hamonicas and accordions, and
a complete line of accessories and musical merchan-
dise. The company reports splendid business during
the convention.
Edward Jackson has opened a music store at 566
Massachusetts avenue, Indianapolis.
Hawaiian Guitars; At the End of the Road (Fox
Trot) Marion McKay and His Orchestra; and Tea
for Two (from No No Nanette) Lange-McKay Or-
chestra.
