That you have considered the cost of the instrument, and have added a fair percentage for profit. That you absolutely and positively cannot afford to sell that piano for any less money, and that anybody who sells a similar piano for less money is either taking a loss or has stolen the piano.

23MARTIN GUITARS.
241833. Manufactured by C. F. Martin & Co. 1895.
25NO CONNECTION WITH ANY OTHER HOUSE OF THE SAME NAME.
27For over sixty years the MARTIN GUITARS were and are still the only reliable instruments used by all first-class Professors and Amateurs throughout the country. They enjoy a world-wide reputation, and testimonials could be added from the best Solo Players ever known, such as
28MADAME DE GONL. | MR. WM. SCHUBERT, | MR. S. DE LA COVA,
29MR. J. P. COUPA. | MR. FERRER, | MR. CHAS. DE JANON,
30MR. H. WORRELL, | MR. N. J. LEPKOWSKI, | MR. LUIS T. ROMERO,
31MR. N. W. GOULD, | and many others, but we deem it unnecessary to do so, as the public is well aware of the superior merits of the MARTIN GUITARS. Parties have in vain tried to imitate them, not only here in the United States, but also in Europe. They still stand this day without a rival, notwithstanding all attempts to puff up inferior and unreliable guitars.
