Piano Moving Picture
By Joyce Brite

I came across a picture of some men moving a piano in one of my old
car/truck brochures.  The brochure is for 1970 Chevy trucks.  The piano
moving picture gets my nomination for the most absurd.

It shows five guys loading an upright piano onto the back of a pickup.
One guy has both hands on the piano and looks like he's actually
working.  The other four guys are all holding umbrellas over the piano
and trying to "help" with their free hand.

Those of you who have moved a piano, have you ever pushed the piano
with one hand and held an umbrella in the other?  Of course not!  The
picture doesn't make much sense.

I have scanned the picture and posted it at:

Hoping all your piano moves are better than this one,
