INTERESTING NEWS IN THE HARLEM DISTRICT
Have You Heard It?—Hot Shot From the Christmans—A N e w
Record Established in Piano-Making
A
RE you an up-to-date piano man ? We
suppose you will answer in the affirm-
" ative. Then if you are, you are inter-
ested in something which has a direct bearing
upon your business and upon your income.
You must be interested in a force which
will have tremendous power in increasing your
profits week by week and month by month.
Of course, then, having settled that matter,
let us look about and see how it can be done.
You do not hesitate to investigate claims,
do you, provided they are made by responsi-
ble, reputable people ? Very well. Now we
claim that we are putting forth absolutely the
best piano in the world for the money. An
extravagant statement, no doubt you will say,
but we stand ready to back that statement.
We ask for investigation and we are con-
fident that every man who investigates our
claims will leave the Christman factory con-
verted to our theory. How is it we do this,
you ask. Well, that is our secret. We have
been making pianos a good many years—un-
derstand the business. We make every part
in our own factory. We supervise our busi-
ness, save expenses in every way and sell our
instruments on an extremely thin margin of
profit. We give the dealer a big proposition
for the money.
We have our own case-making department
and the factory is equipped with all modern
appliances. Every part of the Christman in-
strument is scrutinized carefully as it proceeds
on its way toward completion.
And the musical power of the Christman!
Ah! you should hear it—you should test it.
We may say right here that every dealer who
has sat down and tested the Christman and
listened to its marvelous wealth of tone has
been simply astonished. He has not hesitated
to say that we belong in upper pianodom. Of
course we do, because we have nailed the
quality standard firmly to the Christman mast.
But you should see the quality we give
for the price. That is our strong point, a union
of quality and price. Hard to beat, is it not ?
