KEYSTONE OF
Kimball Piano
STRUCTURE.
i _
j ■ j
I
The sale of the Kimball Piano is the keystone of its unsurpassable quality, the founda*
' tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity with artists and musicians. Perfect
| piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraction,
of a second. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pro
! tense), but out of the few who have nearly reached the goal,
Kimball is Prominent.
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the cultivated human voice. An
! imperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
i claim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a piano .
scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of other of the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest output
j tea any tactury. w« are able to sell the Kimball at a very moderate price, quality considered
( The Kimball system and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
