Eighty-Eight More Schools,
Churches, Etc. Using Gulbransens
From time to time, notices have been
published regarding a booklet which
is issued periodically by the Gulbran-
sen Co. of Melrose Park, 111. in which
are listed the schools, churches, col-
leges and other institutions in which
the Gulbransen pianos are in daily use.
The last story about this was in the
May issue of the REVIEW. At that
time, there were well over 2,000 institu-
tions listed.
The most recent addition to this list
are 88 names of school, churches and
colleges, which, according to the offi-
cials of the company manifests to no
little extent the popularity of the Gul-
bransen piano for use in such institu-
tions.
