brings us many first-class,
high-grade pianos in ex-
change for Grands and

from the best homes in
Texas as people who buy
Grand Pianos and High
Priced Players are naturally
well-to-do and the in-
struments they owned have
had the best of care. In
fact, many of them have
been in use for only a few
months or a year.
We also have a number
of high-grade pianos that
have never been sold. Our
custom has been for years
to place any piano that has
| been on our floor CO days in
the “shopworn class” and
put a price on it that will
be the means of effecting
an immediate sale.
As our new fall stock is
beginning to arrive, we are
going to close these pianos
out at unusually low prices.
