THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
"Saxello" Making Notable
Success in the Trade
New H. N. White Co. Instrument Moved
Rapidly by Dealers Who Have Stocked It—
Big Advertising Campaign
CLEVELAND, O., October 7.—The new King
"Saxello," the new type of saxophone recently
announced by the H. N. White Co., 5225 Su-
perior avenue, has made a notable success in
the trade in the short time that has ensued
since it was placed on the market, according
to R. N. White, secretary of the company.
Dealers who have placed the instruments in
stock have had little trouble in moving them
rapidly, for it seems to meet with the imme-
diate favor of saxophonists.
Mr. White wishes it understood that the
"Saxello" is in no sense a novelty instrument.
It is a regular saxophone, specially designed to
eliminate a number of the objectionable fea-
tures common to the ordinary soprano saxo-
phone.
The advertising department of the H. N.
White Co. is backing up the new instrument
with one of the most complete and effective
campaigns ever planned in the band instrument
field. The company will woik hand-in-hand
with its dealers in merchandising the "Saxello,"
as it does with all King instruments. Mailing
pieces and dealer helps designed to quicken
sales are being distributed to the trade.
