Who Buys a Cunningham
The bigger the man the closer he buys, for it is his business
ability and brains that have made him big.
Can you imagine a man who has made his money by hard
work and sane business methods paying 25 to 30 more to a
dealer for a commodity because the dealer must charge this
extra amount to do business?
"The Thinker" knows that by purchasing from a reliable
manufacturer he can save the in-between profits that add no value.
Cunningham Pianos are made here in Philadelphia; they
contain more value, durability and musical effectiveness than any
instrument sold in Philadelphia today at a price 25 to 30 more
