THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
Like Any Other History
—the history of music is largely a record of
individual names and the accomplishments
they stand for. And like all history, it is made
afresh, every year. The hero of today is eclipsed
by him of tomorrow; the bright reputation of
the past is dimmed by later failures.

It stands for a piano that has been kept above
the reach of criticism; for a piano that has
never compromised a hair's breadth with com-
mercialism; a piano that has had but one
standard of success and that TO BE RECOG-

We are honored with the Pacific Coast agency
for this superb piano. It can never be sold on a
price basis. It will appeal only to those who
wish the world's closest approach to perfection
in a piano.
