PLAYING THE PIANO…

…YOUR CHILD’S GATEWAY TO ADULT HAPPINESS!

Oh, God!!! Is that all there is to it? Can you imagine what our world would be like right now if every parent got this postcard in the mail?

Verso: “The child who learns to play the piano today is building for himself a treasure house of happiness…a reservoir of relaxation…upon which he will draw in the “grown-up” years ahead. Don’t wait! The ideal time to start is in the formative years, between six and ten.

See us soon. Let us help you to help your child’s present…and future.”

OK, pianists…how many of you live in a treasure house of happiness??? How many of you relax in a reservoir??

There’s no company associated with this. There is space below the printed message for a music store to imprint its information. (Published by the American Association of Piano Sellers???)
