12th Edition Pierce Piano Atlas

BOB PIERCE “Mr. Piano” - 68 YEARS IN PIANO and ORGAN BUSINESS
“a man who loved pianos”
"If it can ever be said of a man that he lives, eats and sleeps his vocation, then it can truly be said of W. R. (Bob) Pierce. Mr. Pierce not only sells pianos at a record-breaking pace; he works at a desk shaped like a grand piano; he smokes a piano shaped pipe and he owns what is probably the world’s finest collection of miniature pianos; a collection which has been exhibited and exclaimed over from coast to coast, and which has been publicized in leading periodicals both in and out of the piano trade. In short, Bob Pierce is “Mr. Piano” himself."
