A COSTLY APOLLO.
One of the most attractive window displays along
Piano Row in Chicago this week was that of the
$10,000 Apollo piano which was exhibited in the win-
dow of the Rudolph Wurlitzer Co., 229 South Wa-
bash Ave. This instrument, built by the Apollo
Piano Co., De Kalb, 111., will be used in a musical
feature to be presented at the Chicago Theater during
the week from March 19 to 25, and later at the Tivoli
and Riviera Theaters. The piano is bright red in
color, which accounts for the prominence of the dis-
play.
