Last of Purchases for This Sale Arrived Yesterday and Are Now on Our
Showroom Floors—You Can Still Get the Choicest Bargains of the Sale
When we went to the factories over six months ago and made
plans for our Golden Anniversary Sale, the arrangements in
cluded special price concessions which were absolutely neces
sary in order for us to give the lowest prices ever known in
Omaha. »
At the time these arrangements were made with the factories
we placed orders for hundreds of Grands, Players and Up
rights, the total orders running into thousands of instruments.
These orders have now been filled—the final shipments con
sisting of several freight car loads have arrived, and repre
sent the last of the wonderful bargains for our sale.
OPEN
EVENINGS
The instruments are now on display on our showroom floors
and afford (while they last) the same startlirtf values that
heralded the opening of this great sale. .Can You Afford to
Delay, knowing that these are the last of the greatest values
ever offered in Omaha? It is very possible that never again
will prices like these be offered, as they have been made pos
sible this time only through the help of the factories coupled
with the extraordinary orders we were able to place. Don't
delay longer—Come at once any day or evening. The sale
will last till these instruments are gone and no longer.
