Everybody Can See Why the Wanamaker August
Furniture Sale Is Supreme
IN EVERY department of life there are some men, things and institutions which
stand out unmistakably from all others by reason of certain distinctive quali-
It Is a Rare Sight to See
Nine Acres of Furniture
under one, roof.
Almost, all of the Fifth, Sixth' and
Seventh Floors are quickly reached by
each of the forty-eight (48) o the extras
best1 hydraulic (water power), elevators.
Visitors passing through the city to
and from the seashore and mountains
will have something to talk about when
they get back home.
There is certainly no such display of
furniture anywhere in the United States,
to the best of our knowledge or belief.
It would be worth cbming from
Atlantic City for a happy shopping day
in the Store.

ties or points of excellence.
It is not in spirit of vanity we say that our August Furniture Sale is a supreme
illustration of this .quality of distinctiveness and excellence in a store event.
Every excellence for which a Wanamaker Furniture Sale is noted finds a new
emphasis in the August Sale of 1920.
The supremacy of this Sale in magnitude of stocks is something every eye
can see.
No other stocks can stand a fair comparison with them in quantities, varieties,
suitability and general excellence.
The character of Wanamaker furniture is the one thing upon
which everything else in the sale depends.
It simply has to be unsurpassed.
The furniture in this August, Sale is of the finest character obtainable in the world today.
That is a plain statement founded on fact, backed up and borne out by woods of the choicest kind, by workmanship
of unrivaled skill and by styles that hold true in all that is beautiful and harmonious in the principles of design, construction,'
carvings and decorative detail.
Back of the Sale is all the furniture hrour stocks at savings of 10 to 50 per cent. No other two sales combined have
such resources to depend upon. The floor samples alone are a mighty assemblage and a magnificent sight. But they are;4i
only a part of the collection of furniture upon which this Sale is founded.
Take your choice tomorrow, the third day of selection, of anything in the whole beautiful assemblage.
