Some Reasons for Buying
Your Piano at
Wanamaker 's
N'o need to urge people to buy pianos.
Nearly everybody will buy a piano who can, because
nearly everybody recognizes the importance of music, and
wants its mighty influence in their home.
But not everybody may know the superior advan
tages of buying his piano in the Wanamaker Piano
Salons.
These advantages arc many.
Of the very first importance is it that here the pro
spective purchaser will find grouped together under one
roof the finest makes of pianos in America to be found
nowhere else in Philadelphia or New York than at tho
Wanamaker Stores.
The CH1CKERING, the SCHOMACKER and the
celebrated KNABE, are names that need no praise in
musical circles, because all musicians know that they
stand for the supreme excellence of piano making. They
can be purchased only here.
Here, too, and here only, are six other notable makes
of pianos, including the EMERSON, the LINDEMAN
and J. C. CAMPBELL, each famous in its own way.
Besides the assurance of finding only the approved
makes of pianos here and in a variety nine different
makes to give wide scope for choosing there is the
further assurance of price.
A piano costs no more because it is purchased in
the beautiful Egyptian Hall or one of its surrounding
salons of music.
Here we give music the architectural setting we
think it should have space, beauty, privacy and acous
tics for testing. Hut it adds not a dollar to the price.
The same in any city are the prices on these nationally
known instruments.
Here, too, you have the services of musically-trained
salespeople, who know music and know pianos, and can
assist you in every way in your choice.
A further advantage is the convenient terms of pay
ment that may be arranged (including the acceptance
of used pianos in part-payment if desired.)
The magnificent reproducing piano, the AMPICO,
may be heard and purchased only at Wanamaker's.
This of itself is enough to bring the prospective pur
chaser of a piano here.
The complete service of this musical house is at your
disposal, whether you plan to buy a piano (or a player
piano) of little or considerable cost.
