Simplifying the Selection
of Home Furnishings
Our sixty-five display rooms enable you to make your selec-
tion with an understanding of how your furniture will look in your
home.
Quite frequently one sees furniture that looks
well in the display windows or on the sales floors,
but one does not know how this furniture will look
in the home—your home.
The element of chance and doubt is removed if selec-
tion is made at Pringle's, for here you have sixty-live
rooms of various sizes with the furniture arranged as it
would be in your home. The tremendous diversity of
styles provided for your selection is made apparent after
you have strolled about through these rooms and wan-
dered around our salesfloors.
There is no gainsaying the fact that a wide variety
assists materially in arriving at the exact style of furniture
to meet your requirements, and this is assured here.
Your charge account is solicited.
