Wurlitzer Victory
Models in Northwest
SEATTLE- Fred Fields, Wurlitzer di s-
tributor in Seattle and Spokane, reports an
unprecedented turnout of Wurlitzer music
merchants and their wives on the recent
National Wurlitzer Days for a showing of
the Wurlitzer Victory models for 1941. The
two parties, F ields asserts, brought orders
for immediate delivery exceeding all ex-
pectations.
"Here, as everywh ere, th e en tire lin e of
Victory models a nd Wurlitzer remote con-
trol equipment went over with a bang that
presages what, in all probability, will be
the grea test year in history for Wurlitzer
music merchants," Fields declares. "Every
mod el in th e line was praised to the ski es
for its beauty an d evi dent earning power,
and there's no use reiterating that Polaroid
♦
illumination took the gang by storm."
