March 1962. Fred Myers, 301 West Jefferson Street showroom.
301 W. Jefferson at Webster Circa 1953 - 1964. Studios expanded to the house next door where a student is waiting for a ride.
Fred Myers always has had a beautiful showroom. The original 301 W. Jefferson Street store use to be a grocery store. The offices, with windows in the rear, used to be the meat freezer. Fred Myers always offered the most inventory selection and had the largest advertising budget of any of the 28 competitors who have come and gone since Fred Myers began in 1953. Customer service with leading brand products have been the mark of Fred Myers. Don Brattain has been a giant in providing service as well as working with Fred Myers in most all phases of the business when the need required. Don has played a major role in the store's success while maintaining his own independent piano service business.
Fred at work and delivering in style. The Chevrolet El Camino is known to have delivered a 9 foot concert grand. Don Brattain can tell some amazing stories of his and Fred's experiences.
Over 50 years later one of Fred Myers' service vehicles is pictured on the exact location as the original store at 301 West Jefferson St. The New Grand Wayne Center is now across the street and opened with a New Yamaha 9' Concert Grand supplied free by Fred Myers for its summer long event in 2005.
