Not saxy enough
Mulford A. Barlow, an accountant for the Schneidemann Meat Packing Company and an amateur saxophonist, is suing the Selmer Musical Instrument Corporation for an undisclosed sum of money for what he is terming “gross violations of an implied contract.”
His attorney alleges that "in their glamorous print advertisements that feature beautiful women gazing longingly at men playing the saxophone, the Selmer Corporation creates the expectation that all one has to do to gain favor with said beautiful women is to purchase and learn how to play one of their extremely expensive saxophones. After spending more than $6000 on a Selmer Mark VI Eb Alto Saxophone and assorted accessories, as well as two years' worth of private lessons, my client, Mr. Barlow, is no closer to going on his first date than the day he passed his CPA exam."
