THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
Drop Carving.
The attention of the trade is directed to
the drop carving machine illustrated and
advertised elsewhere in this issue. This
machine is a time saver and money maker,
the cost of production being exceedingly
low, while the work turned out is in every
course reduced. When such work as this
can be produced at a cost of between ten
and twelve cents, it is hardly necessary to
speak further of its value.
Piano or organ makers desirous of lend-
ing additional beauty to the architecture of
their pianos at a minimum of cost should
investigate this drop carving machine. It
revolutionizes the old order of things—in
fact one of these machines will produce
more carving in one day than ten ha*nd
carvers. The Drop Carving Machine Co.,
30-40 West South street, Indianapolis, Ind.,
the manufacturers of this ingenious device,
will be pleased to give full particulars to
all interested.
