What Impressed a Dealer Most
In a Visit To the
Metropolis.
A
WESTERN dealer who has been visit-
ing New York recently remarked: "I
am always interested when I visit the
metropolis of this country.
"The city is undergoing the most remark-
able changes yearly perhaps of any other city
in the world.
"In business, too, there are changes. Some
men are moving ahead with surprising rapidity.
"What interested me most in the music
trade line was the tremendous hold which the
Christmans are gaining upon the trade.
"I visited their factory at 597-601 East 137th
Street, New York, and was more than agreeably
surprised at what I saw while there.
"I had read their announcements with more
or less interest and am frank to confess that I
supposed some of the statements made were
exaggerated.
"But no! It was not so. I believe that the
Christman Small Grand surpasses anything of
similar size in this country.
"The Christman uprights, too, are splendid
creations.
"It is no wonder that Christman trade has
gone ahead so rapidly during the past two years.
"I can tell you the Christmans are putting
up pianos which are really wonders.
"They draw trade—good trade—trade that
is worth having.
"I had ordered one sample piano before my
visit to New York and I have repeated the origi-
nal order several times.
"I found that the Christman trade keeps
coming. It draws in new faces and it attracts.
"The Christman piano to my mind is
unique and I believe that the agency for the
Christman, for only one man in a town can
handle it, is worth striving for.
"The arrangement which I concluded with
the company was satisfying in every respect and
I feel confident that I am going to have a Christ-
man trade this year that will expand into great
proportions.
"Talk about piano individuality! If the
Christman pianos, uprights and grands, do not
possess that then I miss my mark.
"They are instruments which are out of the
ordinary, and I would say to my brother dealers,
lose no time in investigating the Christman, and
you will be satisfied as I have been."
