The GEVURTZ STORE is the oldest of its kind in Portland.
We have been in business, in this same vicinity, for THIRTY
TWO YEARS.
We are now doing the largest furniture business in the Pacific
Northwest and have been for some time.
For many years, we have purchased in larger quantities than all
other furniture stores in the city combined.
Our orders are placed with manufacturers direct, in carload lots,
thereby saving tremendously, both in freight and price.
We. started in business in a small store at Front and Yamhill
streets, later occupying the entire corner, and then enlarging
to include the opposite corner.
Then we moved to the southeast corner of First and Yamhill, also
taking the corner of First and Yamhill, opposite. Our next
enlargement was to include the entire block from First to
Second street.
Our present quarters include a frontage of 75 feet on First, the
entire block from First to Second and 100 feet frontage on
Second, making this store the largest, in square feet, in the
City of Portland.
We are now forced to leave our home, which we have occupied
for so long, owing to lack of consideration on the part of a new
tenant, who refuses, absolutely, to consider the tremendous
responsibility, involved in our going out of business, after so
long a period.
We have concluded, therefore, to dispose of our entire stock,
representing over $100,000 in first-class merchandise, to com
plete a selling out proposition which eclipses, in value, any
similar event ever inaugurated in the Pacific NortliAvest.
Every article, of every kind and description, in our gigantic
stock, goes without a question, in this great winding up of one
of Portland's biggest merchandise houses.

We have not courted the opportunity of foisting a sale upon the public
at this time of the year. We are victims of the relentless, persistent, ever
lasting progress of Portland. While an unscrupulous landlord is our first
cause of selling, we recognize a bigger and better future before us.
In this building, when completed, between Alder and Jlorri
son streets, on Fifth, we expect to eonduet the largest general
merchandise business on this Coast. Here will be. 12 SOLID.
FLOORS OF FURNITURE AND OTHER GOODS. This will
become a tremendous institution of selling and buying capacity,
approached by none in Western America. For the time being,
however, WE WILL BE COMPLETELY OUT OF BUSINESS.
