SCHILLER
The incorporation of the Schiller Patented Suspended Construction in the Vertical
Grand—a form of construction heretofore found only in Schiller horizontal grands
—has resulted in tone of such loveliness that Schiller dealers are cashing in right
and left with high grade sales.
The Schiller Vertical Grand is actually a grand piano acoustically with patented
sound board suspension never before used in a vertical piano. You can hear the
difference, your prospects can hear the difference—and there is no other piano like it.
New Schiller styling; workmanship, veneers and finish of traditional Schiller
quality and beauty, plus the exclusive patented suspended construction, give more
high grade piano quality, more distinction, more
salability. If there is no Schiller dealer in your
community address the manufacturers for complete
information. Schiller Piano Co., Oregon, Illinois.

around its edge in the rim or
lining of back is supported
at scientifically positioned
intervals, greatly increasing
responsiveness and amplify-

tion has won fame for the
Schiller (horizontal) Super
Grand for years. Its merits are
especially obvious — and de-
monstrable by salesmen! —in
