ER-TULL
RADIO
EARL H. MONK Succeeds
IN OBTAINING
THE ECXLUSIVE AGENCY FOR THE FAMOUS
Earl has been trying for the past year to get the agency for this unusual radio which, in
the opinion of experts, is the finest instrument in the American Radio field today. A year ago
Mr. Monk felt that it would be a simple matter to get the Bremer-Tully agency as it was to
get the agency for other makes of radios sold locally. On this supposition he sold two Bremer-
Tully machines and entered orders for them.
The demand for this unusual instrument was so great and the manufacturers so oversold
that the company was very selective in choosing its agencies. It was, therefore, not until after
a thorough investigation of his equipment and and ability to give service that Mr. Monk was
given the exclusive rights in the local territory.
Arthur Treman of Treman-King & Co., Mr. Monk was appointed local agent.

Before You Buy
Once you listen to its magnificent,
“hum-less” tone . - . once experience
the thrill of its distance-getting ability
. . . once discover its hair's breadth
station separation—you will never be
satisfied with any other radio.
And it’s so easy to own one under the
convenient terms of the unusually at-
tractive Bremer-Tully partial payment
purchase plan. ,

Beside being one of the finest, most reliable instrument in the field, Bremer-Tully maintains the finest radio service
in the world. All agencies are especially equipped with extra service chassis. A short circuit or any other trouble
that might arise from outside difficulties is quickly overcome. At no time need a Bremer-Tully owner be more than
thirty minutes without the use of his radio.
