The Pianola Piano .. CHERE ARE TWO WAYS OF PLAYING THE PIANO—by hand and with the Pianola. The Pianola Piano may be played either way. It is really an upright piano with the mechanism of a Metrostyle Pianola within its case. To look at, there is no difference between it and an ordinary piano. But slide back a panel, insert a music-roll, and press the foot-pedals, and it may be played by anyone. As a piano it possesses the pure, rich, singing tone that characterises only the best makes. The addition of the Metrostyle Pianola makes it the first complete piano—complete, because it is not only an instrument of latent musical possibilities, but of such a nature that the full extent of its usefulness may be realised by everyone. Arrangements have been made with several manufacturers to make pianos specially for us. At present we are able to announce— THE PIANOLA PIANO (BROADWOOD PIANO).—The Broadwood Piano needs no eulogy from us. It is the representative English Piano, and has ever held a high place in piano art. THE PIANOLA PIANO (MUNCK PIANO).—We have secured control of the whole output of Ernst Munck, Gotha. These pianos rank with the best instruments of any firm, and are fully guaranteed. THE PIANOLA PIANO (WEBER PIANO).—The Weber Piano ranks as one of the finest products of American genius, and is of the very highest grade. It is the leading American Piano. The PIANOLA PIANO may be bought for cash or on moderate monthly payments. Ordinary pianos of any make will be taken in exchange, and where purchasers already own a Pianola and Piano both instruments will be taken in part payment.
