This Advertisement in the
Saturday Evening Post
of April 28
is the second in the
National Advertising Campaign
in which
Straube
Player Pianos and Pianos
and the Wonderful
Artronome
Player Action
are being featured.
An Opportunity for Dealers
:
We shall be glad to give interested
dealers complete information about
the profit-making possibilities of a
connection with Straube.
The Straube dealer's franchise is
becoming more and more valuable
as national advertising continues its
effective work.
Straube instruments are built to the
highest standards of quality. The
wonderful ARTRONOME action
embodies many exclusive features
and is built complete in our own
factories, installed only in Straube-
made pianos.
The famous Patented Pendulum
Valve, frictionless and non-corro-
sive, is conceded to have eliminated
fully 90 per cent of player action
troubles. Straube dealers appreciate
the dependability of the action, be-
cause it means satisfied customers
and practically no calls for service,
or repairs.
The SOUL of the STRAUBE
ALL it soul, or what you will, there is that something about the Straube which
gives an unforgetable quality to its tone. And after all, tone is the piano. Tone
C
gives charm to the simplest folk song; tone carries the message of the composer's
master work. And tone is the glory of the Straube. Vibrant power with rich
and resonant fullness —pure, singing mellowness —brilliance that sparkles and
gleams like a jewel in the sunlight—many "voices" yet all related, blending like
the rainbow's many colors.
There is, of course, a long and careful process of design, selection and building,
which attains this tone. But what is important to you is that the tone is in the
Straube, and stays there year after year, needing only your fingers or its own
dependable player action to bring it forth.
A wonderful piano for hand playing, an easily operated, thoroughly dependable
action for expressive roll playing; altogether a musical instrument of highest
quality and enduring worth — this is the Straube Artronome.
The Melo-Harp, an exclusive Straube feature
brought into play by the touch of a button, lends
a pleasing variety and adds to the expressiveness
of the Artronome.
Hear the Straube at your dealer's store; try its
easily operated player action. The dealer will gladly
explain the importance of the many exclusive
features of the Artronome. If you do not know
the dealer in your community, write direct to the
factory. We will put you in touch with him.
