Inordinate demand for everything that makes for pleasure and adornment has cleared the country of goods and "goods" we must call them, be they silks, shoes, clothes or pianos. Two other things have happened Scarcity of material and workers has raised production costs. Scarcity has led dealers to bid-against each other, for supplies and that has raised prices. Tl takes the strong store of large output and staunch purpose to win for you in such markets. This is a Noteworthy Offer And we must confess that it is limited. We bought these player-pianos long ago and he maker, though late, was true, and he delivered the goods.
