Interesting Post Card. Conn was always the leading name in band instruments that I remember growing up. Really big factory. Would you think we needed that many instruments a month?
Hello Luvlinens,
I do think they would need to make that many. Each year kids start band and their parents buy them an instrument. Yes, some rent, but the people who rent them out need to buy them too. Plus you have people like my husband who still play and he likes a new horn every now and then to play with ;-)
