Miller Piano Company, Norristown, Pa , Proves the
Value of Reliability in Printed Appeal.
One of the most successful music stores in Penn-
sylvania is that of the Miller Piano Co. of Norris-
town, which attributes success to good and persistent
advertising as much as to an excellent line of instru-
ments. The company, which has branches at West
Chester and Coatesville, printed a page announce-
ment in the daily papers of all three places which is a
sample of the ethical character of the publicity at a'.l
seasons.
Pianos, phonographs, musical merchandise, sheet
music and radio were included in the seasonable sug-
gestions. The places in each instance were strong
without the aid of quoted prices. It was a digni-
fied bid for buyers on the strength of the reliable
character of the house. The name "Miller" is gen-
erally taken as a guarantee of wor'h in that section
of Pennsylvania.
