Charles F Bullwinkel: A prosperous Music House: A visit to Chas F Bullwinkel's music ware rooms was the source of surprise & pleasure. Much of the 2nd story of his large block is employed in the exhibition of pianos, organs, & sewing machines. Here one is enabled to enjoy the tones of an Emerson, a Fischer, a Kimball, a Gramer, or a Pease piano; or to admire the construction of the White, the New Home, the Standard, or the Wheeler & Wilson #9 sewing machine. One commendable feature of dealing with this house is the uniform courtesy as well as the thorough information of its salesmen. No pains are spared to make a customer fell that he has had all parts of a piano, an organ or a sewing machine shown to him by one competent to explain fully the construction of the intricate piece of mechanism. This fact probably accounts for the remarkable success with which this house is meeting. Five organs & one piano were sold during Christmas week. Yesterday, 3 pianos were delivered, 2 in this city & 1 at Edgerton. This is the 2nd piano sold within a short time to people living near Edgerton. One of this house's best known salesmen is Charles Hanover, who not long ago achieved the remarkable record of disposing of two organs & a wind mill in a single day. |
