ful production of a high-grade product. The
materials which are incorporated in the con-
struction of Paterson cases are all selected stock,
the company maintaining large dry kilns so that
they may have under their own supervision the
proper seasoning of the lumber.
One of the most important features of a good
case is the veneer. This has been made a par-
ticular specialty of this company. The veneers
are not only carefully selected,
but they are carefully prepared
and use^d in the construction of
the cases. The devices for
cutting, trimming and gluing
these veneers, tl at are in use
in the factory, have all been
perfected by the executives of
the organization, who have
learned the best method by an
experience of over twenty-
live years of piano case manu-
facturing.
In the accompanying illus-
trations the cutting and gluing
of these veneers are shown.
Close scrutiny of the illustra-
tion will easily convey the ade-
quate equipment which will be
found throughout the plant. The plant of the
Paterson Piano Case Co. is very busy at the
present time and the orders in hand for cases
for later delivery indicate much activity during
the coming winter season.
