Advance of a Piano Sale
No Other Store in
otlCtl
the World Cotil
(In Egyptian Hall at Wanamaker9 s Next Monday)
Twice a year, in January and in August, it is NECESSARY BY COMPULSION
for the "Wanamaker Store to hold great sales of pianos, always bringing in several
hundred instruments at prices so low as not to be understood without explanation.
These sales' are not held to attract crowds to the Store,
or to "bait" the advertising, or to try to lure customers in to
see something cheap and to buy something dear, but are
Absolutely Necessary Sales
to clear out our crowded warerooms to make way for new
business.
Every day this largest Piano Store in the world is
selling new pianos of five great names that are not to be had
elsewhere; selling more pianos than any other, and very fre
quently when it sells a new piano it brings in an old one taken
in exchange for part payment of the new one.
It is these used pianos that make these sales neces
sary; they must be cleared away.
This explanation is given because, without it, it would
seem the height of absurdity to sell even old square pianos
with famous names at prices as low as $10 and $15 and $20
and $25 and $30 and $35. '
Without such good facts behind the Sale it would not
seem reasonable for us to be putting on the mar
ket upright pianos at such prices as $75 and $80
and $90 and $100, in nearly all cases less than
half their original prices, though they are in
struments in splendid condition and with years
and years of usefulness yet ahead of them.
But There Is Good Reason
-and the great sale starts next Monday; and for every
home in or near Philadelphia, where a piano is needed, it
is a sale most marvelously good and timely.
If a piano is needed in your home, spread out this list
before the whole family and let everybody have a choice
in the selection. Make a note of several instruments from
which you would like to choose, and come in here to
Egyptian Hall on Monday morning, so as to be sure of
your choice among the first.
n There wonit be another such opportunity again for
six months at least."
