NEW YORK, MARCH 30, 1912.
You are helping your business grow by pushing the Players
that contain the
Auto Pneumatic Action
The Manufacturer or Dealer who wants profitable Player Busi-
ness will find the AUTO PNEUMATIC ACTION a most powerful
help. The use of this highly_efficient Player Action is a guarantee
that the players are right—and that the player
troubles that have cost the manufacturer and
the dealer both money and customers have been
eliminated.
The "test of time" has proven the supremacy
of the AUTO PNEUMATIC ACTION and
more of these player mechanisms are now in
use than any other. The very knowledge of
this proven reliability and its use in the majority
of high grade players cannot fail to convince a
customer that no player-piano can be more relia-
ble or possess greater artistic possibilities than
those that contain the
Auto Pneumatic Action

MATIC ACTION, showing complete
instrument and double primary and
power pneumatics and "Soloist" de-
vices. Also bellows and folding pedals.
The arrows show the air currents as
they are drawn into the instrument
and finally exhausted through the
valves on back of main bellows.

THE
MUSIC TRADE
REVIEW
The Behning is recognized by
the Trade as the best player-
piano manufactured to-day.
Ten "Whys."
BECAUSE from the very start the
Behning Player-Piano Action con-
tained original distinctive features.
BECAUSE surplus and unnecessary de-
vices are eliminated and the player-
action represents the quintessence
of perfection in musical results- and
in ease and satisfaction of operation.
BECAUSE it was made RIGHT at the
beginning and has given continuous
and gratifying satisfaction.
BECAUSE the Behning Player-Action
is manufactured in our own factory
by our own workmen and under our
own patents, under capable and ex-
pert supervision.
BECAUSE in placing the Behning
Player-Piano on the market the
manufacturers had in mind the es-
sential demands necessary to match
the wondrous tone and musical
qualities of the artistic Behning
Piano.
BECAUSE the Behning Player-Action
places in the hands of the player
pianist a wonderful control over the
instrument, imparting a humanlike
touch to the hammers, so that the
beauties of the original composition
are retained just as intended by the
composer.
BECAUSE the Behning is the only
player-piano in which the piano case
is neither distended, nor built down,
nor cut down, nor weakened in any
way.
BECAUSE the same care and attention
is exercised in the manufacture of
the Behning Player-Action that has
made the Behning piano one of the
very few strictly high grade instru-
ments made in the country to-day.
BECAUSE the admittedly high stand-
ing of the Behning Player-Piano,
both musically, structurally and ar-
tistically, is clearly revealed in the
representative dealers who handle
Behning products throughout the
country.
BECAUSE wherever the Behning prod-
ucts are sold you will find the dealer
handling them a leader in his com-
> munity.
