"THE TEST OF TIME"
One of the owners of the AUTO PNEUMATIC ACTION COMPANY
recently completed a tour of Europe where a careful study was made of
the AUTO PNEUMATIC ACTIONS manufactured over nine years ago. It
is astonishing how well preserved and satisfactory of operation these
actions are.
In Dublin, Ireland, several actions were examined that had been in
constant use for many years and all were giving fine satisfaction although
they are of the 6 5-note type.
In Dresden, Germany, three more over nine years
old were playing perfectly, although having received
in the entire time very little attention and adjustment.
In France, eight were examined in public places,
playing perfectly, and their owners were enthusiastic
over their durability.
In Austria a like condition was found; also in
Spain.
The English Navy have in constant use several
which have been subjected to the most extreme
climatic changes.
The wonderful durability of the AUTO PNEU-
MATIC ACTION is the foundation for its success
and it is a well known fact, both in this country and
Europe, that most of the best makes of pianos will
use none other. THE AUTO PNEUMATIC ACTION
is the most economical to buy in the long run, as only

THE AUTO PNEUMATIC is the best action made.
