Attractive Methods of Displaying and Light-

Products Add to Interest.
The most unique and outstanding exhibit in con-
nection with the annual convention of the Music Mer-
chants' Association of Ohio, at Toledo this week,
was that of the Gulbransen Company, located in room
1301 Commodore Perry Hotel.
A very ingenious lighting system had been worked
out by the company, showing off the beauty of design
and finish of the Gulbransen instruments, to the best
advantage. Chief among the instruments displayed
from the standpoint of newness, are the 4 ft. 6 in.
Reproducing Art Grand, never before shown at any
convention; the 5 ft. 4 in. Spanish grand in handsome
walnut, and the Modern Musical Miracle, the upright
reproducing piano nationally priced at $575 and ex-
hibited at Toledo for the first time.
Other Gulbransen pianos on display were the Art
Model Minuet in ivory, with daintily colored decora-
tions; the 4 ft. 6 in. small, double truss grand in
mahogany duco; Autograph Model Registering piano
in mahogany duco; Cosmopolitan Registering piano
in walnut duco and Symphony model, upright in ma-
hogany duco.
A Radio Display.
There also was the first public showing of the
Gulbransen radio. The handsome Console Model
260-C and Table Model 160-T are on display, as well
as the Ivanhoe type Gulbransen radio cabinet. The
Gulbransen radio was displayed in a separate alcove in
the Gulbransen display room, ingeniously illuminated
and furnished.
MARIONETTE REPRODUCING GRAND.
In the way of advertising devices, the company
made its first display of a continuous moving picture
machine for the dealers' show windows, for the pur-
pose of showing Gulbransen films. Many other fea-
tures of advertising were also shown to the merchants.
XVI. case and is equipped with the Schulz Aria
Divina reproducing action. It is four feet wide and
has a seventy-three note scale.
But despite its small dimensions the Marionette
has a volume and tone sufficient for a room of any
size. In fact, in this respect it is scarcely distin-
guishable from the five-foot grand. In every sense
the lktle piano is a high grade musical instrument
with satisfying purity of tone.
Gulbransen merchants were greeted by John S. Gor-
man, vice-president and sales manager of the com-
pany; Walter Kiehn, advertising manager and a
director, and Clark F. Gross, Ohio representative who
has been with the company for a good many years.
A special meeting of Gulbransen merchants was
held Tuesday afternoon, following the regular busi-
ness session, after which they were the guests of the
company at the fish dinner at La Tabernilla.
Symmetry in Design.
The well known M. Schulz ability to case pianos
artistically is again displayed in the new model. Per-
fect symmetry characterizes the "Marionette" and
the finish is in keeping with the high grade methods
of the Chicago company. It is finished in clear
lacquer, high lighted and rubbed by hand.
Of course, the tone quality of the M. Schulz pianos
is such a well-known feature of the instruments, the
trade naturally expects such a quality in the "Mar-
