An exhibition of Kimball pianos
will be given at No. 203 North
Main street, Salisbury, N. C. bp
ginMng Wednesday, March 23 d.
and closing Wednesday, Maich
30bh, 9:80 p. m.
This exhibition is for aivr-rtifc-iug
purposes
Admission will be free and ev
ery body is cordially invited to
attend.
We have arranged special hd
tertaioment for all, each after
noon and evening.
The display will include ons
each of the different styles of
Kimball, Whitney and Hiuze pia
nos, and will be tSe most complete
exhibit ever given the South by
any piano-company.
The object ot the exhibit is to
thoroughly introduce the different
style pianos manufactured by tne
W. W. Kimball Company, and
have them as well known to the
general public as the Kimball
Reed Organs have been for the
past 20 years
Several years ago we used this
method to introduce Kimball or
gans, and the plan was so success
ful, the Kimball organ business
hae been largely increased each
year, while most of the other or
gans that kept up the old, expen
sive methods of advertising, have
either failed or retired from busi
ness. Kimball organs are now so well
known in eveiy section that ws
are able to get business at such
low cost aB to enable us to reduce
the retail price on organs nearly
one-third on each instrument;
and it is our wish to havathe Kim
ball Pianos as well established as
the Kimball Organs are.
There are already over 200,000
Kimball PianoB in use, ai.d they!
have a very large trad of tho '
princip'l dealers in the cities.
We ar' positive we can double!
cur business in the cities and farm
sections, if we gefc the public well I
acquainted with the beautiful tone
and splendid wearing qualities of
the K mball Piano.
We havb withdrawn most of
our advertising appropriations
from the magazines tnd billboards
and will use this advertising mon
ey in exhibiting instruments.
Kimball PianoB are now csed by
the world's greatest musioif ns, by
several music conservatories, and
as statod above, over 200,000 of
the best families in this country
use aud edorse them.
The W. W. Kimball Company
has over twice the largest factory
in the business, and over four
times the largest .-cash capital.
Any banker will give you our
financial standing.
At the close of tne exhibition
all of the instruments will be sold,
and to make certain that each of;
the different styles will be left-'
here, we will reduce the price to
about wholesale on each istru
ment on very liberal terms. -
The exhibition will be open
evenings and a souvinier will be
given away free to each person
who calls. We will be pleased to
have you call, even if yon never'
intend to get a piano.
A careful examination of the
tone and construction of these1
sample pianos is what we desire.'
Piano mechanism will be explain
ed by factory experts. We want
your good opinion, and it will pay
you for your time. Exhibition
open evenings until 9 p. m.
