iE ARE NOT philanthropists; we do not try to make you believe that you aro
getting anything you do not rhy for; but we do claim, and we can prove it,
that we can give you more piano value, more good piano value, than any
dealer can offer you in Philadelphia today at a price 25 more than we ask.
We are aggressive in telling you what we know to be facts and what
you will believe if properly explained.
We make our Pianos, make them through and through. Who else retailing pianos
in Philadelphia can make this claim? We sell them to you direct, the same as the makers
of the other pianos sold in Philadelphia sell them to the piano dealers, at the wholesale
price. If we had to buy our pianos from a manufacturer we would have to add to the cost
of selling, our profit and freight. This extra cost is what you pay any piano dealer, but it
is eliminated when you purchase from us, the makers, direct
Comparison is the truest test of superiority and to substantiate our claims compare
our Forrest Piano at $250 to any upright sold in Philadelphia at $300 to $350 or our
Special Player-Piano at $450 to any player offered at $600 we'll leave the answer
to you.
Now, you piano buyers who are going to make this Xmas one to be long remem
bered by giving your loved ones a piano, come to us, the makers, who have earned an
enviable reputation for piano value; see the instruments, see the prices, and it will, prove
an economical Xmas, as well as one to be remembered..
