The Acrosonic French Provincial is a
creation of the nationally noted stylist
and designer of fine furniture, William
Millington, who has been on Baldwin's
staff for many years. Mr. Millington's
many outstanding furniture designs as
Chief Designer for the Baker Furniture
Company have brought him world-wide
respect and acclaim as one of the deans
of contemporary American designers . . .
a recognized authority on distinctive
style and good taste.
In keeping with current fashion trends, The Baldwin Piano Company
proudly presents a new Acrosonic styled in popular French Provincial.
With its graceful, curving lines this new Acrosonic is equally
appropriate in traditional or modern settings and is particularly
adaptable to today's living. Select walnut veneers in the popular
fruit'wood finish, hand polished to a gleaming luster, make this
one of the most strikingly handsome of all Acrosonic Pianos.
Truly the Acrosonic offers more . . . superb tone . . . patented
Full-Blow Action . . . "Baldwin-built" 11 quality of workmanship
throughout . . . and an authentic style executed by one of America's
foremost designers—exclusive features that have made
Acrosonic ""The World's Most Wanted Small Piano."
