My Dear Mr. Schmoller:
You know how very important 1 consider the
tone quality of a piano for accompaniment of songs,
and It gives me great pleaaure to tell you that the
Steger piano, which I am using, is highly satisfac
tory. It has a sympathetic and effective tone quality,
1 am unusually well pleased. Very truly yours,
THOMAS 3. KELLY.
Come in and see and hear the results of Mr. Steger's labors, and you will be con
vinced that his pianos are worth more than they are sold for and that they cost less
than others that are not nearly so good.
"We sell on easy monthly payments and accept instruments of other makes as part
payment.
