That's some record! Over 200,000 Double Valve Standard Actions are row
in use giving satisfactory service.

The Double Valve Action is the choice of people who want the best that
money can buy. This action is equipped to bring out of the piano every bit
of harmony of which the instrument is capable. Its skill may be compared
with that of a great pianist. The harmony is in the piano—it remains for
the pianist or player action to bring it out. The master pianist can. So
can the Master Player Action—the Standard Double Valve Action.
The numerous patented devices of the Double Valve Action make perfect
rendition possible. Among these patented devices are the Pneumatic
Tracking Device—Flexible Striking Fingers—Double Set of Valves—Ac-
centuating Bellows, etc.
Styles B and C Standard are described below, ^Although each of the three
styles A, B and C are slightly different in construction, they are all alike in one
respect—they are all "Standard Quality." Check them over. Tick out your ideal

TYPE B STANDARD
TYPE C STANDARD
Type B Standard—for those who like a Single
Valve Action. The Single Valve Standard has
the same construction, the same patented fea-
tures (with the exception of one set of Valves),
the same quality materials and workmanship as
the Double Valve Action. The only difference
between Type A and Type B is one set of Valves
—for those who prefer the Single Valve Action.
Over 60,000 Type B Actions are now in use
giving satisfactory service. Many of them
have been in use for over ten years.
Type C Standard—a featherweight easy-tread-
ling Player Action. The construction of Type
C is like Type B with the exception of the Sim-
plified Bottom Action. The simplified bottom
construction gives a featherweight treadling
action which has made this model famous.
Type C has a treadle action which is as easy and
graceful as the motion of a feather fan.
Type C is every inch a Standard. With the exception of the Sim-
plified Bottom Action and the Single Set of Valves, it contains all
the patented features that have made the Standard Double Valve
Action famous. If you like a Player Action that is unusually easy to
treadle, you will like the Type C Action.
