C H IC A G O , IL L IN O IS
the very first day we opened the door
of the W olf Sales Company. We have
always gone out of our way to give
the operator the very best equipment
that money can buy. O ur trade-ins
have always been most liberal and
our terms as fa ir as possible and my
motto has been a square deal to all
at all times. As a consequence cus­
tomers are satisfied and they have
come back to us time and time again
for their requirements.”
“ W e are firmly convinced that the
coin machine business is still in its
infancy and there are plenty of op*
portunities ahead for the aggressive
operator. So sure are we of our con­
victions that we have mapped out an
intensive expansion program for 1940
that will see our business e x p a n d e d
to care for the growing list of cus­
tomers in the Pacific Northwest,
said Mr. Reiwitz.
