First Break in Prices Of Certain Fine Hand-Woven Oriental ‘Rugs Brings to Wanamaker’s for Disposal] Beginning Tomorrow, Saturday Hundreds of Warranted, Wanted Weaves at About Import Cost (Below any currenf price for equal qualities) These rugs come from a world-large organiza- tion which takes ‘approximately two-thirds of the output of Persian Rugs, and an even great propor- tion of the rugs woven in Asia Minor. Its agencies in London, Paris, Berlin, Frankfort, Vienna, Budapest and Petrograd have temporarily ceased their great businesses; and there has been an extreme contraction of banking facilitigs in Asia Minor. Moftey required for financing the rug weavers has been asked of the New York agemts, who were in- stolen @ turn as much of their stocks as possible into cash. . ’ ' So they come to Wanamaker’s as all dealers in fine merchandise do when they de- sire quick distribution of a large quantity of goods. The collection is as fine as it is varfed. embracing rugs of virtually all desirahle weaves and sizes, from a 22x34 inch mat to a 35 foot x 19°foo} 3 in. carpet, every rug embodying the Three Cardinal Points of an Oriental Rug (1)—Beauty of design, (2)—fastness of color, (3)—durability. We warrant the two latter. The first point is a matter of individual taste, for the satisfaction ‘of which there is ample varicty, The Persian Rugs Selected by the large buying force resident in the rug-weaving districts; men who top the list of those who know Oriental rugs and their oommereial value. The Asia Minor Rugs woven in the same manner (by hand) as the Persian rugs. For greater efficiency in their production, the great organization from which these rugs come main- tains factories in which the raw wool is assembled, cleaned, spun, dyed and sold to the individual weaver who weaves his rugs at home and brings them back to be marketed. These rugs are in exquisite and per- manent colorings.
