and guitar music from all publishers, as well as piano
music and books, are special features at No. 33 also.
Customers will find a competent and obliging corps of
salesmen in attendance. John C. Haynes & Co. have
recently removed from No. 694 to 700 Washington
street to their newly fitted apartments at No. 453 to
463 Washington street. Customers enter at No. 463,
taking the elevator to the third floor, which is richly
fitted with show cases filled with desirable instruments
for musicians. The next floor is used for storing and
shipping. Three large floors in the building No. 453,
which are connected with these rooms, are used for
laying out dealers' orders, drums, band instrument and
repairing departments. Their manufactory, where the
" William B. Tilton" and " Haynes.Excelsior" guitars,
and " Bay State " guitars, mandolins and banjos are
made is located on Stanhope street. Messrs. C. H.
Ditson & Co. of New York and Messrs. J. E. Ditson &
Co. of Philadelphia draw their musical instrument sup-
plies from John C. Haynes & Co. These houses have
largely increased their facilities in this department
recently.
