CT MIESSNER The Name that is SYNONYMOUS with Usherinq in a vast new market for the radio merchant ELECTRONIC MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS THE Electronic Musical Instrument is a thing of infinite superiority. Whether piano, organ, or fretted instrument, it is being widely acclaimed. People are buying. New markets are opening up. The days of the Electronic instrument is here! This new musical vogue is due in a large measure to the numerous MIESSNER patents under which leading manufacturers are producing instruments finer than any known heretofore. What Toscanini has given to orchestration — what Paderewski has given to expression, Miessner has given to TONE-POWER and TIMRRE, with totally new qualities of tone variation, fullness and brilliancy. Through electronic actuation and control, the Miessner principles have brought a musical quality unbelievable until actually heard. Attracting the highest type of prospect, it gives the dealer PRESTIGE as well as sales advantage. Typical product of a Miessner Licensee — Krakauer Brothers "Super Electone," combining electronic piano, organ, radio and phonograph. • Write to any of the licensed manufacturers listed below <ind begin selling Electronic instruments.
