CONN LEADERSHIP
E gre?.t band leaders of the world, symphony
-L orchestra and grand opera conductors as well as the
masters of popular music, join Sousa in endorsing the
supreme quality of Conn instruments.
For fifty years Conn has been building instruments of
highest quality. At the World's Columbian Exposition,
1893, and at every world exposition since, Conn instru'
ments have won the highest awards.
In our great laboratories experts are daily testing, im-
proving, refining, with the co-operation of world-famous
artists. It is this constant striving toward an ever higher
ideal of perfection which has made Conn supreme.
The Conn factory is the largest of its kind in the world.
More men are employed here than in all similar factories
in America combined. Conn is the only manufacturer
of every instrument used in a band. More Conn Saxo-
phones are sold than any other make in the world.
Soloists choose Conn instruments for their individual
superiority—brilliant tone, perfect scale, reliable action
and, above all, the easy blowing which results from
Conn's exclusive hydraulic pressure method of expand'
ing taper branches. Conductors prefer Conns for their
inspiring, organ-like effect in a complete ensemble.
The exclusive features which have won the endorse'
ment of artists are cf great value to the beginner as well.
Conn instruments with all their exclusive features cost
no more than other so-called standard makes. Write
now for catalog and complete information, mentioning
instrument.
Conn violins have won the approval cf renowned artists.
Dealers are invited to write for our proposition.
