    In 1940, the Blessing factory was erected at its West Beardsley Avenue location in Elkhart, and master craftsmen were now making instruments in a progressive manufacturing environment with modern precision capabilities. Big Band luminaries such as Muggsy Spanier, Bob Crosby, Horace Heidt, Ted Lewis and others endorsed Blessing trumpets and cornets. The Blessing professional model "Super Artist" trumpet was introduced and later became the preferred trumpet of choice of legendary jazz trumpet artist, Clifford Brown.
