In appreciation of an astounding
(but not unexpected)
Record of Success
IN FEBRUARY of this year, Steinway
& Sons announced the Model " S , " a
new grand piano retailing at the
extremely low price of $885.
The success of this new instrument
has been unprecedented. Orders in
tremendous volume have come in
from all over the country. Steinway
is more than ever convinced that the
musical public has been waiting
eagerly for a piano of Steinway
quality under a thousand dollars.
It is only right that Steinway &
Sons take this opportunity to thank
their dealers for their splendid co-
operation. From the start, all were
intensely enthusiastic, and worked
with us in every way. Their record
of success is its own tribute to their
fine spirit.
Today, Steinway & Sons look for-
ward, with their dealers, to even
greater achievements.
