A notable feature of interest in the Fall Pageant of
the Stockyards Business and Civic Association held
at Dexter Park, Chicago, from November 9 to 14,
was the showing of pianos, players and reproducing
pianos by the P. R. Buchinski Piano Co., 5054 S. Ash-
land avenue, Chicago. Four booths were occupied by
the company, which is among the liveliest of the ac-
tive representatives of the Brinkerhoff Piano Co., Chi-
cago. The annual exhibition in connection with the
fall pageant is one of the year's important events in
that prosperous region of which the stockyards is the
center. It is always well attended by the stockyards
workers as well as other residents of the section and
is the occasion of many sales of pianos by the P. R.
Buchinski Piano Co.
