Sinossi
Excerpt from Points About Drawing Instruments
These imitations are often catalogued in a manner calculated to mislead the purchaser; some at a lower figure and others at the same prices as genuine Alteneder Instruments, a discount being offered as an inducement. Q Should the customer be posted and ask for our name or trade-mark, he is reluctantly informed that they are not Alteneder's make, but just as good. We therefore wish to inform the intending purchaser of the necessity of specifying genuine Alteneder instruments, manufactured by Theo. Alteneder, Philadel phia. Each genuine instrument bears the name, T. Alteneder or trade-mark T. A. Stamped on it. For such instruments we are responsible, and if any defects arise at any time after the instru ment is in use, that can be attributed to a fault in the workmanship or material, we repair or replace free of cost, whether purchased direct of us or through a dealer. We cannot offer any discounts, but we can furnish the best instruments at a fair price.
