vi/urlttzer Sptnette Style 460
MAHOGANY WITH DARK BROWN KORDEVON
PHOTOGRAPHED IN THE MARSHALL FIELD 6? CO. TREND HOUSE DESIGNED BY MABEL VLISSINGEN
Gt
SENSATIONAL NEW PIANO by Wurlitzer affording luxury without extrav-
agance. Designed by William Zaiser in the traditional mode which blends beautifully
with many period designs, as well as modern and contemporary styles in home fur-
nishings. The mahogany with dark brown Kordevon harmonizes well with rooms
decorated in 18th Century, Empire, Regency or Directoire. The alternative blond
maple with white Kordevon blends effectively with Swedish modern, as well as
various other types of modern design. Wurlitzer has again given the world a new
and higher standard in piano values. . . . The Wurlitzer Spinette Style 460 has all
the elegant appointments that are desired in a fine piano especially designed to further
enhance the charm of the smaller room which is ever increasing in popularity. Height
36 inches. . . . Full scale (88 notes). . . . Famous patented Augmented Sounding
Board. . . . Reflex Tone Louvres. . . . Acoustic Tone Chamber.
