Starting with February issues, the Women's Magazines will carry Gulbransen Advertising. The Ladies'
Home Journal, circulation 2,322,422, starts the ball rolling. General Magazines, like The Saturday Evening
Post, continue to be used. This means the doubling of Gulbransen sales effort in magazines of National
influence.

A small cash payment will put the Gul-
bransen Registering Piano in your home.
Subsequent payments to suit your con-
venience. Allowance will be made for
your present piano or other musical
instrument.
Four upright Registering models:
Community, $450; Suburban, $530;
Country Seat, $615; White House, $700.
Gulbransen Grand, $785; Registering
Grand, $12.75. For your protection we
stamp the price of each instrument on
the back at the factory.
AVE you ever listened to the music
H
of this old, familiar song without
singing—to yourself, at least?
Few of us have. Few of us can resist
the deeply human urge to take part in
the music that we hear.
Just listening is not enough. It leaves
something in us unsatisfied. Only from
the songs we sing and the music we
play ourselves do we derive complete
enjoyment.
To your home the Gulbransen Regis-
tering Piano brings both these pleasures
—even though you cannot read a note
of music.
The Gulbransen plays by roll. Yctyou
control its playing. You can hush it to
a whisper, or release its clear, sweet tones in brilliant
volume. You can play fast or slow, accent melody
and harmony notes, accompany voices or other
instruments. It is simple and easy.
You can, in a word, do anything that you could
do if you played by hand. This is true of the Gul-
bransen alone—the only piano of its kind in the
world.
Only the Gulbransen has the special patented con-
struction—the Registering feature—which registers
exactly your individual touch. Ordinary roll-played
pianos, lacking this feature, sound mechanical.
The Gulbransen, having it, is responsive, personal,
human. It gives you all the enjoyment of hand play-
ing. Its music cannot be told from hand playing.

Bring the beautiful old songs into your home again
That is why the Gulbransen is the largest selling
piano in America today. Thousands of pianists,
recognizing its superb quality, own. it and play it
both by hand and by roll.
As a straight piano, for hand playing, the Gul-
bransen is an instrument of the highest rank. As a
Registering Piano, it alone plays all music rolls.
Bring the beautiful old songs into your home.
Gather your family around the Gulbransen and
know the joy-of-music that only this great instru-
ment can give. There is a Gulbransen dealer near
you who will be glad to show you the Gulbransen.
If you do not know his name, write us.

The National Association of Piano Tuners recommends that all pianos be
tuned from two to four times a year—your Gulbransen deserves this care.
There are a thousand thrills for you in
music that you, perhaps, have never
heard. The new deluxe edition of our beautiful
illustrated booklet will open up to you a new world
of enjoyment, not merely in listening to fine music,
but in playing it with your own touch, your own
feeling, and the joy of your own creative expression.
