To those who need piano, organ
or piano-player now, or those who will
have to purchase an instrument within
the next two years, this great sale will
be of unquestionable Importance if
the saving of a very goodly sum of
money is a prime factor, and it is and
Of right should-be.
It may or may not be we'll known
that the Kimball Piano company never
do things by halves; that is to say.
when they announce a sale of pianos
at cut prices it means all and even
more than the term 'cut prices" i'm
plies. 1t means good pianos, the best
of makes at very much lower prices
than can be obtained at other times
and places, either at their store or
elsewhere.
The extensive alterations to be made
in the Minneapolis and st. Paul stores,
the practical rebuilding of the latter,
adding a new story, cutting out di-
vision walls to the adjoining store
room, putting in plate glass front and
complete redecoration Of same, COM
pels us to clear out a large number of
Instruments by May 1st at which time
the work will be started.
It is well known that the gritty dust
arising from brick and mortar which
seeps through and into everything is
very ruinous to the highly polished
surfaces of pianos and to the ham
\
stores are over-crowded with pianos
and we must get them out Of the way
of the workmen, to say nothing of
| the injury from dust, rubbish and in
moving the pianos about.
So we will take our loss of profit
now and give it to the purchasing
public, rather than in damaged pianos,
retarded work, etc., etc.
