If you own an old-fashioned piano you may be sure that people find it nearly as conspicuous, as mirth-provoking and as awkward as clothing of the same vintage. Don’t let an out-of-date instrument hint that you can’t keep up with the times. Trade in the old piano for a handsome J. & C. Fischer Baby Grand in the style of Duncan Phyfe. This dainty little instrument brings to your home all the delicate charm which marks the work of America’s greatest furniture designer. In Queen Anne furniture, the characteristic motif of the chair back is a vase; in Hepplewhite, a shield; Duncan Phyfe chose for his, the classic Greek lyre. In the Duncan Fhyfe Baby Grand, this graceful lyre motif has been used in the desk and again in the upright supports. The legs are chastely fluted, Only 5' 3", this little Baby Grand can be attractively placed even in a very small room. Come today and see how clear is the grain of its rich brown mahogany; hear how sweet and mellow is its tone. $995, plus transportation. J. & C.
