SOHWIER
"TX7"E respectfully call the attention of our agents
and the music-loving public in general to
the fact that certain parties are manufacturing,
and have placed upon the market, a cheap piano,
bearing a name so similar to our own (with a slight
difference in spelling) that the purchaser may be led
to believe that he is purchasing a genuine " SOHMER
PIANO."
PIANOS
We deem it our duty to those who have been
favorably impressed with the fine quality and high
reputation of the "SOHMER PIANO," to warn them
against the possibility of an imposition by unscru-
pulous dealers or agents.
Every genuine " SOHMER PIANO " has the follow-
ing trade mark stamped upon the sounding-board :
