A. B. CHASE—America's Finest Piano
The criterion by which to judge a fine piano is tone. It is upon tone that the reputation of the A. B.
Chase piano is based. A. B, Chase tone is peculiar to the A. B. Chase piano. It has never been equaled
because it is the product of men who have made an art of tone production.
The experience of years, personal attention to details, and the finest materials the market affords are
all back of the final result which speaks for itself when the keys of the A. B. Chase piano are touched.
The same men who developed the A. B. Chase to its present state of perfection are still engaged in
building this incomparable instrument. You can offer the A. B. Chase to your clientele as America's
Finest Piano.
There are twelve styles in the A. B. Chase line at a price range from $750 to $5,000.
THE SWEET-TONED EMERSON
The Emerson was one of the first pianos to gain nation-wide distribution and fame. Emerson has
been a household word since 1849. It is pre-eminently the piano for the home. The name "Emer-
son" needs no introduction to the music loving public.
It is the instrument which is known to and meets the requirements both as to price and quality of the
substantial element in every community.
With the addition of the new small grand, the Style 49, retailing at a popular price, the Emerson line
now comprises twelve styles. The Emerson reputation is a valuable asset to any merchant. The
demand for the Emerson is steady and consistent—nearly everybody knows the Sweet-Toned
Emerson.

ferent styles.

clusive line of reproducers that are demonstrably superior.
