Chickerinq
Pianos
For those who have cultivated their
musical talent to the highest possible
point, or those who intend to do so, the
Chickering is undoubtedly the wisest
selection. For eight-five years it has
been the choice of musical artists seek
ing the most perfect medium for the
expression of their skill. Prices from
$500 to $1,250
are moderate, indeed, when the rare
quality and real musical value is con
sidered.
Ivers & Pond
Pianos
A high-grade, artistic piano at a
moderate price. It has been one of the
few really GREAT American pianos for
more than fifty years, and for richness
of tone and beauty of construction, is
difficult to surpass. The IVERS &
POND loses nothing by comparison,
even with higher priced instruments,
and though its price is comparatively
low, it is by many experts, preferred to
any other piano. Our price as low as
and up to
