The Gulbransen Minuet Art Model is shown in
the accompanying cut. This instrument is finished
in deep verde green, with gold, ivory and other col-
ored trimmings, all daintily and artistically handled.
The Art Model Minuet is a show-piece for fine
homes, for schools, theaters, hotels and other places
of similar character. Decorations are used on the
upper and lower panels, the key-slip, trusses and
edges of the top lid.
The Minuet Model has reached a point of great
popularity throughout the entire country on account
of its exceptional tone and graceful appearance. Now
that it is available in the Art Model it will gain added
prestige, and further emphasize the outstanding value
of the Gulbransen piano line.
