PRESTO-TIMES
was the acclaim of both dealer and artist when Gulbransen's
new Vertical Grand was first presented. And now the American
Public has promptly and enthusiastically accepted this new
and different type of piano . . . An epoch in piano development,
the piano of today.
Your prospects and customers who demand the smartest in all
things, aside from the arresting beauty of elegant matched
veneer encasement, will be charmed with the new and practical
features of this instrument—compact, space economizing,
modern—and yet withal, even more glorious tonal quality.
With the advent of this new piano no great amount of imagina-
tion is necessary to see that big dividends are in store for those
alert dealers who grasp this marvelous sales opportunity because
of a great new market.
"Go to town" with Gulbransen, the line with the least sales
resistance. Over a quarter of a century of continuous manu-
facturing by the same factory, under the same and only one
name, Gulbransen (that of the founder), has created a public
acceptance second to none in America . . . To help you acquaint
the public with this new piano we have now ready effective
various size newspaper mats, consumer type folders and window
display material. Write today for your copy of our new sales kit.
