Strange as it may seem, a Piano
is frequently the last thing the
“newly-weds acquire! It should be among the
first possessions, as there’s nothing else in the
home that can take its place. Among family and
friends there’s always some one who can play
and sing; thus the Piano becomes the rallying
point for entertainment, pleasure and much
happiness.

We offer an unusually wide range in price, terms
