www.americanradiohistory.com A PERSONAL MESSAGE TO EVERY MUSIC OPERATOR

A phonograph's TRUE VALUE to the music operator is measured by this yardstick: Will it get and hold top locations, operate depend- ably at minimum expense and maximum profit, in sensible relation to the investment it represents?

Over the years Wurlitzer Phonographs have faithfully and provably held to that con- cept of phonograph value.

As a result, Wurlitzers have been by all odds the world's largest selling phonograph, have consistently commanded highest trade-in values, have earned for Wurlitzer the dominant leadership of the commercial music industry.

BUT LEADERSHIP IMPLIES RESPONSIBILITY

Under today's conditions Wurlitzer recognizes as its primary responsibility the contin- uance of quality merchandise built to the desires of the public, the location and the operator. It is no idle boast that current Wurlitzer models, at today's prices and by every accepted standard, are the greatest phonograph values ever offered to music operators.

That is as it should be, for it is important that ALL of us face the future with confi- dence. And we at Wurlitzer sincerely believe that we have a stake in your future as you have in ours.

Wurlitzer Engineered Music Systems enable you to serve and profit from every type of commercial music installation. Wurlirzer Phonographs are location tested and proved EASY TO PLAY, easy to service, economical and profitable to operate.

What you get for what you pay is still a fundamental of your business. And when you buy a Wurlitzer you buy the best-in value, dependability, earning power, and in public and location acceptance.

The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers will have

completed its 35th year on February 13, 1949. Down through the years, from the pioneering days when Victor Herbert and a small group of far- seeing associates organized it as America's first performing right society, ASCAP has given constantly expanding service to members and patrons. Its membership has grown from a little more than 100 to some 2400 composers, authors and publishers. Men and women of every state and territory of the United States, and Americans by adoption born in more than forty countries are on the ASCAP roster. The great mass of American music created by this array of talent is augmented by myriads of works of affiliates in other countries. This great melodic stream becomes the life blood of many thousands of business enterprises whose music problems are solved through the simple machinery of the ASCAP license. On the eve of its 36th year, ASCAP, now a truly national institution, takes this opportunity to express its grateful appreciation of the loyal support of its licensees in all fields.
