We Are the Only Factory to Home Distributors
of the world's best Pianos and Player Pianos at the
least possible expense.
When you fail to investigate our proposition and
buy elsewhere you just take$100.00 from your bank
account and give to the other fellow. Isn't it to your
interest to investigate this matter? It costs you
nothing to look, and nine out of every ten i)e4'sons
that enter our warcrooms find such tremendous fine
pianos at such low prices and on such easy terms that
they most always buy from us.
The expense is what creates the price of any com
modity. This is the reason why we can save .you
money on the piano deal, as we don't have to contend
with high rents and we hire no one to sell our goods,
and for this reason alone we can save you $100.00 and
then make the same amount of money as the other
fellow.
We Tune Pianos. We Rent Pianos. We Repair
Pianos. We Sell Pianos. In fact, we do the Piano
business of Southern Oregon.
