Every Steinway piano em-
bodies principles of design
originated and perfected by
four generations of the Stein-
way family.
Every instru-
ment possesses the rare and
appreciated qualities that en-
dear the Steinway to such
masters as Paderewski, Rach-

For more than three quarters of a century through successive generations of the
Steinway family, the Steinway piano has been developed according to the high
ideals established by Henry Englehard Steinway, maker of the first Steinway
piano.
Now the fame of the Steinway is wo^rld-wide; the name inseparably associated
with those of the greatest artists, and representing it in the retail field is a cov-
eted privilege. The leadership in trade, distinguishing Steinway dealers every-
where, is significant of the great power of the Steinway name.
