Go on Sale for Less Than Cost to Make the Piano. Mr, Jno. C.

When we say this price is less than ever quoted by any house, no matter where located, we mean it, and it would not be possible for us to make this price if we expected to realize dollar for dollar our home deserves a piano, we know, and we are going to ask that in justice to the you have: made that you come and inspect these, goods.

We finally took him up on his own statement: “Make your own price, pay me cash and you can have every piano, no matter what ” This did, and we assure you we the pianos at a price we can afford to sell at the price advertised in this paper.
