"Flapper Wife" Records Set
New Sales Total in Paducah
Century
Costs Less!
Music House in Irvin Cobb's Home Town Sells
Over 400 Records of That Number in Connec-
tion With Strong Local Campaign
and nets you more than any other
edition of standard reprints.
Nearly 90% of the biggest selling:
non-copyrights in CENTURY cost
you but 4c, which you sell at a
profit of 275%.
This is the same
price you paid when
CENTURY was a 10c
edition and your profit
was only 150%.
In addition to CEN-
TURY yielding you
this handsome profit, it
is also spending more
in National Advertising than
ever before, which helps you sell
more copies.
Your co-operation Is appreci-
ated.
W. H. Lackey, of the News-Democrat of Pa-
ducah, Ky., which sent out Irvin Cobb into the
newspaper world, has some interesting things
to tell about NEA fiction. In connection with
"The Flapper Wife," he secured the services of
a local music store to sell the records and a new
high mark was set, over four hundred phono-
graph records being sold, the largest number at
any one time since the war.
At a dance in Paducah "The Flapper Wife"
song was encored twelve times before intermis-"
sion by the dancers and five times more when
repeated by request.
