Our Own Make. Fully Warranted
May Flower Mandolins and Guitars are the sensation of the day. Made by master

of leadership through merit.

to have become standardized in every feature.

their amazingly sweet tone and superb finish.

that will raise the average of anyone's performance fifty per cent and actually improve with
age. Every May Flower is registered and a guarantee accompanies each. Read the description
of these wonderful Mandolins and Guitars. Read the unsolicited testimonials. There
are thousands equally as strong and favorable.

you, order one of these May Flowers on approval, you will certainly own one some day
if you wish to shine as a star performer. Get a May Flower now, and double the quality

A Testimonial from Linn's Concert Mandolin Orchestra
E. C. McNEIL, Denver's Foremost Mandolinist
I take pleasure in saying a few words of praise for the May Flower Mandolins, which I have played for
the past seven years. It is a mandolin with a violin tone, pure, sympathetic quality with great carrying power
back of It; in short it is an ideal instrument, the acme of perfection, and nothing more exquisite jn form and
workmanship can be found on the market. For the ceaseless time and thought spent in perfecting the May
Flower, the manufacturer deserves a great deal of commendation. Wishing you success.
Tours truly, EVERALD C. McNEIL, Soloist and Teacher
