Braumuller Enterprise.
THE STEINERT DEAL PRESAGES WELL FOR THE
FUTURE OF THE HOUSE — IMPORTANT POINTS
COVERED BY THEIR WHOLESALE TRADE.
PROGRESSION HAS BEEN THE ORDER OF
THE DAY WITH
CO.
THE BRAUMULLER
REMARKABLE BUSINESS AD-
VANCES MADE BY THEM.
T
HE announcement first made in THE
REVIEW of last week that the great
New England house of M. Steinert & Sons
Co. had concluded arrangements with
President O. L. Braumuller for the hand-
ling of his pianos throughout all of New
exhibited the possession of a goodly
amount of business pluck to forge ahead
as they have, against the depressed busi-
ness conditions. In the first place they
have exercised not only good management
of their business, but they have sought by
all means to perfect their instruments so
that they can command more and more at-
tention from reputable dealers as time
moves on.
A comparison of the Braumuller piano of
to-day with the product of three years ago,
will reveal the fact that the present iustru-
ment is infinitely superior in every way. It
will convince the beholder that progression
In looking over the list of the Braumuller
agents to-day we must recognize the com-
pany have made some excellent business
connections.
Take in the South and
Southwest, that great music trade firm,
Jesse French Piano and Organ Co., who,
notwithstanding they are interested in the
manufacture of pianos themselves, are
large purchasers of the Braumuller, it
gives the company a goodly distribution of
their wares over the extensive Southern
territory operated by the .Southern house.
Again, there are numbers of smaller
dealers who are pushing the Braumuller in
all sections. Add to this the New England
move, that is the deal with the Steinert
Co.; it insures for the Braumuller product
a great distribution over all of the New
England States.
Most assuredly the Braumuller Co. have
made a magnificent beginning on a summer
which promises to be not remarkable for
business activity.
H. F. Miller & Sons Piano Co.
T
BRAUMULLER CABINET GRAND.
England, created a good deal of talk in
trade circles. It was everywhere admitted
that it was a move which presaged much
for the future of the Braumuller piano.
The Steinerts are piano men, and it was
only after the most critical examination
that they took on the Braumuller.
In studying the Braumuller situation to-
day admirers and critics will be forced to
admit that the evolution of the Braumuller
business during the past three years has
been remarkable.
O. L. Braumuller and his confreres have
STYLE A.
has been the order of the day with that
concern.
Rather than deteriorating in value the
company have constantly added to the ar-
tistic and commercial value of the Brau-
muller piano by incorporating within their
instruments man}? specially patented im-
provements which have added greatly to
their value to the dealer as well as to the
home purchaser.
One important move was the use of the
Wessell, Nickel & Gross action in all of
their pianos.
HE Henry F. Miller & Sons Piano Co.,
of Boston, report a very fair business;
in fact, a better business than one would
imagine, judging from the constant cry of
"no trade," which seems to prevail so
generally nowadays.
The Miller uprights, as well as the artists'
grands, are favorites with the cognoscenti.
The artists' grand particularly has been in
evidence recently in conventions and con-
certs, and in all cases won marked recog-
nition from noted artists. The reputation
of the Miller pianos is now firmly estab-
lished in both home and musical circles.
While the Miller & Sons Piano Co. have
no reason to complain about the business
outlook, yet in common with many others,
they would be thankful to see general busi-
ness more active, and prosperity a little
nearer at hand.
THE daily ^5olian recitals at the Sanders
& Stayman vvarerooms in Washington, are
attracting a very fashionable coterie of
music lovers to that establishment, who
not only enjoy the excellent concert, but
take especial pleasure in "sampling" the
fine display of instruments on exhibition
in their warerooms. The Norris & Hyde
transposing keyboard is quite a drawing
card in the Sanders & Stayman warerooms
these days.
