The GEVURTZ STORE is the oldest of Its kind In Portland.
. , . ....... ..1 f ....
We have been in business, in this same vicinity, for THIRTY-TWO YEARS.
"i ' , . - . . ,
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 . 1 .
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 street, the entire block' from First
to Second, and 100 feet frontage on Second street, 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 tremen-
dous 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 complete a selling out proposition which eclipses, in value, any sim
ilar event ever inaugurated In the Pacific Northwest. Every article of every kind, and de
scription, in our gigantic stock goes without a question in this great winding up of one
of Portland's biggest merchandise houses. .
THE MORAL IS PLAIN BUY EARLY WHILE THE CHOICE IS EXCELLENT. - WE
ARE CERTAIN THAT THE MATTER OF PRICE WILL BE PERFECTLY SATIS
FACTORY TO YOU.
