Combined, here and in our New York store, our stock of Oriental Rugs is far too heavy—and our remedy for such a condition is not to tem- porize — but act—drastically and dramatically—for every dollar you spend for a genuine Oriental Rug is a REAL investment—and under the préwént eircumstances a super- investment, because we are for- getting profit and ignoring cost—in the endeavor to reduce the stock. You'll select from a collection of Oriental masterpieces—true to tradition in the richness of their coloring and in the inimitable skill with which each thread has been waven into its place in the artistic design—in a rug that will endure into an heirloom.
