YOU NEED THIS BOOK 



I 



IF YOU INTEND TO BUY A PIANO. A book 

 — not a catalogue — that gives you all the informa- 

 tion possessed by experts. It makes the selection of a piano easy. If read carefully, it will make you 

 a judge of tone, action, workmanship, and finish; will tell you how to know good from bad. It de- 

 scribes the materials used ; gives pictures of all the different parts, and tells how they should be made 

 and put together. It is the only book of its kind ever published. It contains 116 large pages, and is 

 named ''The Book of Complete Information About Pianos." We send it free to anyone wishing 

 to buy a piano. Write for it.

 your home. We do not employ any agents or salesmen. When you buy the WING PIANO you pay 

 the actual cost of construction and our small wholesale profit. This profit is small because we sell 

 thousands of pianos yearly. Most retail stores sell no more than twelve to twenty pianos yearly, and 

 must charge from $100 to $200 profit on each.. They can't help it, 



A Wing style — 45 other styles to select from.
