Our prices are the same us in Sun Francisco anil Portland. If you have any doubts investigate for yourself There are two things yon want to consider in tnirohasing a pi auo, for you are likely to only nnr'clinae one in a lifetime if you get a good one. First, see that it is of a reputable make: and second, that the case is double veneered inside and out. No first class piano manufacturer will put out'a piano in imitation or stained case and not oil that have veneered cases are good, for there is tho "wolf in sheep's clothing" kind that the case ia expected to sell the piano. You take no chances in buying a Steinway, A. B. Chase, Kmerson or Estey, as they have a national reputation. We also carry in stock the noted A. B.
