I like the "Big Money" part!
Must have been written way before any 'false advertising' laws were ever enacted. Funny ad to read... it's basically a pack of lies wrapped in BS. He should have named the company, 'I'll Say Anything For A Buck Drum Co.' lol

Ha, everyone knows drums aren't a real instrument, right?? You just HIT them. Anybody can do that, no lessons needed.
Nevertheless, once you hit a drum, you become sought after friend and girls are swarming all over you.
True story, bro!

Darn, I went and used my last postage stamp investing in an art career.
But I'm an artist and drummer...is it ONLY the good ones that get it all?!
( I used to get "C's" for effort in gym and recess.)
That's what my best friend in Junior high told me when we both got put in band for some unkown reason. "Let's play drums. they seem easy."
That Gretsch would make a great t-shirt
A lesson in how to utilise the desperation during the period surrounding great depression. Just hit a drum and you can make money.
If only it were true now.
