FAIRBANKS PLATES.
In the American piano industry the piano plates
made by the Fairbanks Company, Springfield, Ohio,
are considered a potent means towards attaining the
character of sturdiness and durability for pianos. It
is a selection prompted by distinctive qualities in the
Fairbanks plates which manufacturers believe to be
essential to the production of high-class pianos. Fair-
banks piano plates are particularly desirable because
they conform to the requirements of the exacting
piano manufacturer and are made from the finest
materials by the most skillful workmen. It is ad-
mitted by dealers, piano makers and piano owners of
a discriminating kind that a Fairbanks plate in a
piano is a prime factor in dependable construction.
