Save $112 on a Beautiful
"Conreid" Player-Piano
Offered through the co-operative plan
Gimbel Club Now Forming
By this helpful method of selling the total cost to you is jnr.v.-
SSIO
Pay $3 Weekly No Extras or Interest
The "Conreid" Player-piano needs no introduction or
argument Philadelphia knows it as a commanding good
value at its full price.
The Gimbel Club Plan
is just this: By centering 'the attention of a city on just
one style of instrument we are justified in buying a very
great number. We effect a double saving
1 It costs, less to get any goods in a great lot.
2 It costs tremendously less to sell to a public already in
terested in just that one thing.
Every cent of expense is finally added to the cost of an
article nowhere else to add it. To save expense is to
lessen selling price to you.
The club includes also the offering of
"Milton" Upright Pianos, $335
Saving $46,50
Pay $2.25 weekly no extras of any kind
Player or piano can be had cased in
Beautiful Mahogany or Oak as Preferred
Usually we can increase the number of instruments buying
three hundred to start with we can generally raise the order to four
hundred, but by reason of manufacturing conditions the makers have
no large stocks and therefore
This Offer Will Quite Soon End
No "just-finished" instrument is ever sold here. It takes a period
of seasoning to make sure that casework and finish will endure.
Every Instrument
is inspected and must be approved before delivering by
Prof. William Silvano Thunder
and
Prof. Stanley Muschamp
These musicians are known to all Philadelphia and their
O. K. is worth much in reality and much to your peace of mind.
