Announcement was recently
made by M. G. Hammergren,
general sales manager of the
Rudolph Wurlitzer Company of
the appointment of Mayflower
Distributing Company to handle
distribution and sale of Wurlit
zer phonographs in the Buffalo
area.
Coincidental with this an
nouncement came one by Sam
Taran, Mayflower owner, that
Ray Peterson would serve as
manager of the Buffalo office of
this concern, which also distrib
utes Wurlitzers in Pittsburgh.
First pictures available of the
new quarters are published here.
Located at 350 Delaware Ave
nue, they are unusually attrac
tive, featuring a front in keep
ing with the location of the
establishment and an interior
distinguished by mural treat
ment on the walls.
Also assisting in the operation
of the business is Art O’Mealia,
known to Buffalo music mer
chants along with Ray Peterson
as a couple of gentlemen who
know the music business from
sales to service as few do.
Initial re p o rts from May
flower officials carry a high de
gree of enthusiasm, and include
sales figures that indicate a
great future for the newly
formed organization.
