THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW

FOR YOUR STORE
AN any dealer of musical merchandise today, in
deciding which piano shall be the leader of his
line, afford not to consider carefully the oldest
among the American pianos?
C
One of the very oldest in America is the Hallet &
Davis, made since 1839, in Boston, the center of musical
culture—a piano singled out through more than three-
quarters of a century by great musicians, by leading
schools and conservatories, and by discriminating music
lovers everywhere.
Out of the past, such world figures as Franz Liszt,
Anton Rubinstein, Johann Strauss, played and praised
the Hallet & Davis. Such great educational institutions
as the Boston Conservatory of Music have testified to its
merits. Today, great singers—Mary Garden, Constan-
tine, Boninsegna, for instance—select the Hallet & Davis.
We repeat this personal history, which is probably
known to most of the piano dealers
of America, merely to
emphasize the fact that the new r Hallet & Davis upright,
illustrated on the opposite page, embodies all the virtues
which have won fame for the Hallet & Davis in the past,
together with even finer, nxore accurate mechanical con-
struction, which the fine modern manufacturing methods
make possible.
The dealer who carries the Hallet & Davis line finds
that he has a leader which creates respect among the cul-
tured musical people as well as the every-day lovers of
music in the home. And he also finds in handling this
line that the spirit of business co-operation at the factory
gives him the strongest incentive—as well as opportunity
—to concentrate on selling.
We solicit correspondence with up-to-date dealers who
are looking for such a leader as this famous piano.
