Bow Music Operators may
insure revenue " during the war
.'
• • •
Far-sighted operators-the men who expect to stay in business during, and after, the
war-a l'e realizing two important facts: I. Locations must be made " bump-proof" by
furnishing more modern equipment. 2. To meet increased operating costs, revenue from
the individual location must be increased proportionately.
You may 'easily and inexpensively modernize your locations with a Buckley Music System
installation. Hundreds of operators in the West have shown double and triple the' revenue
with Buckley, and we have the facts to prove H. But-make your installations NOW while
equipment is still on hand at your nearest Buckley distributor.
Your present phonograph equipment-regardless of age, make or model-may be easily
converted. See the Buckley distributor nearest you, tod~y!
