The alternate groupings in mahogany, shown here. illustrate the wide price range which is one of the attractive features of the group plan. The spool bed is $47.00: the highboy-secretary is $120.50. The chair drawn up to it is $28.00, the chair by the bureau $19.00. The bureau and hanging mirror are 8102.50. The nightstand at the foot of the bed is $21.00, and the bar- rel chair beside it, $114.50. Now examine the picture at the right, and you will see the same bedroom with another selection of pieces from the same Old Colony Group. And of course any of the pieces in the other arrangement are interchangeable with any of these ® Lovely furniture, inviting groupings, appropriate backgrounds — a charming bedroom Mrs. Harriman was happy to sponsor! And with equal enthusiasm she endorses the new home furnishing plan illustrated by the alternate groupings shown above. This is the new Berkey & Gay Group Plan —a plan which permits you to buy furniture as you now buy china or silver - from “open stock.” Conceived and carried out by Berkey & Gay. for seventy- five years America’s leading makers of fine furniture, this plan offers you, not arbitrarily determined “suites,” but groups of over a hundred harmoniously styled pieces. @ From these groups you make your own selections—knowing that you can add to them through the years. Only those styles have been chosen for Berkey & Gay Groups whose enduring charm has been tested by generations of homemakers. Authentically reproduced from fine old “period” pieces, they will never be outmoded. ® And this Berkey & Gay Group Plan is framed to meet varying needs, and varying pocketbooks, too! Each group offers a choice of sofas at various prices, of chairs, all in perfect style harmony with your sofa. Any dining table goes with any dining chair or buffet in the same group. An inexpensive dresser is at home with an expen- sive bed, an inexpensive bed with an expensive dresser. You make your own combinations, within the group, at your own budget. Even if your budget is a modest one, you will be surprised to discover how far it will go. For Berkey & Gay’s Group Plan means savings to producer and dealer that are passed on to you in prices hitherto unheard of for furniture of this quality. Berkey WASHINGTON, D.

Borden Harriman sponsors this bedroom with its alternate groupings of distinguished Old Colony furniture & The bedroom pictured here is shown with two different selections of pieces from Berkey & Gay’s first Group, the Old Colony. The possibilities of this Old Colony Group are brought home most for- cibly when you realize that though each of these bedroom arrange- ments includes the same number of pieces, still the difference in price is more than a third! Berkey & Gay's Old Colony Group is now on display in your city’s better stores. The livableness and friendly charm of these American Colonial designs in maple and mahogany may be just what you want for your own home. Why not visit the displays and see them for yourself? & Gay These charming dining room pieces are from another Berkey & Gay Group —the Mount Vernon, designed in the classic 18th century manner.
