' ' Casper, Wyo., April 28 ,1923 Mr. Chas, W. Barton, Publisher The Casper Daily Tribune, City Dear Mr. Barton: | As you doubtless know, we have been advertising exclusively in the Casper Daily and Sunday Tribune ever since the Wells Music Company opened up at 232 East Second. We have been advertising our line of Chickering pianos, Ampicos and small instruments in the Tribune, using fair size space during the week and large space on Sunday, with occasionally a half page or full page for special occasions: It is a pleasure to inform you that our business has shown a steady increase from the start and in fact, our sales have exceeded our fondest expectations. We attribute this splendid increase in business largely to advertising in the Tribune and to the publicity which you have given us. Our long study of advertising has convinced us that it is only profit- able for us to advertise in papers which are members of the Audit Bureau of Circulation, where the advertiser is protected by a guaranteed audit. We attribute part of our increased business to the large increase in the circula- tion of the Casper Tribune. Assuring you that we are very appreciative of the co-operation ex- tended to us and that we shall continue to advertise extensively in your ex- cellent medium, we remain. Yours very truly, The Chas.
