Original Prices of Knabe Ampico Pianos
By Allen E. Ford

Hi all,  I have a price list from 1929 for Knabe Ampico and regular
pianos somewhere and I seem to recall I provided it to AMICA and it
was printed in an AMICA monthly in the 1970s.  A 5'4" Knabe was
$1295 and a 5'4" Knabe Ampico was $2495 as I recall.  If and when
I find it again I will send it in since it also had the prices for
larger Knabe pianos and the additional fee to get a walnut veneer.

I also recall seeing a price for a Welte Original of $3,000 but I do
not recall a date for that price.  I have a price list reprinted by
Frank Adams many years ago for Duo-Art Weber and Steinway pianos as
well.
