THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW.
Prescott Piano Co.'s Announce-
ment.
We mean, of course, the Wegman Piano Co.
Instead of dull times, their books record a
marked increase over previous periods,
with a steady growth of trade right along.
The success which has attended the Weg-
man Piano Co. can be attributed to the ex-
cellence of their pianos, and the splendid
management of the business. The patent
tuning pin, which is the principal specialty
of the Wegman pianos, is one of those in-
novations which mark an epoch in piano
making, and establish permanently the
name and reputation of the makers and in-
ventors.
Added to the different improvements em-
bodied in the Wegman piano, which re-
sult in a remarkably fine tone, their case
structure is admirable; it is up-to-date and
exceedingly attractive.
The Wegman is a good piano for dealers
to handle or to keep in mind. It sells as
well in summer as in the fall season. It
is a money maker. The manufacturers are
always willing to meet or hear from deal-
ers desirous of investigating or handling
these instruments.
The Prescott Piano Co., Concord, N. H.,
have issued the following announcement to
the trade:
We are now well settled in the new factory pur-
chased by us directly after the fire of February 9,
last, and which we have since been remodeling
and fitting up to suit our business.
Our plant is located at 181 North Main St., in
Concord, N. H., and is one of the finest and best
equipped piano factories in.the country. The plant
consists of three large brick buildings, No. 1, 116
by 40 feet, three stories and basement with a one-
story office, 18 by 38 feet, fronting on Main St. ;
No. 2, 95 by 30 feet, two stories and basement, and
connected with No. 1 by boiler house, 20 by 30 feet,
two stories and basement; and No. 3 is a one-story
brick building, 125 by 40 feet, giving us a total floor
space of nearly an acre.
We have fitted our factory with the latest and
best of machinery, and as we employ only the best
of skilled labor, we are therefore in a position to
turn out the finest of work.
We are getting our different styles of pianos well
along towards completion, and expect to be able to
fill orders about the first of June. While making
no marked change in our scales at present we arc
adding several attractive features to the cases
which will, with some other late improvements,
make the NEW PRESCOTT the most desirable
piano possible for dealers to handle.
Our Mr. Dana G. Prescott represents us in the
wholesale trade, and will be pleased to call and
give prices and assign territory to dealers in whose
district the PRESCOTT is not handled.
Thanki ng our friends for kind favors in the past
MR. WILLIAM STEIN WAY'S young sons,
and hoping that we may work together for the
greater success of the PRESCOTT in the future, William R. and Theodore E. Steinway,
we remain.
