For Summer Music—
a Marvelous Reproducing Piano
What season so fully expresses the spirit of
music as summer? The rolling thunder is
an overture; the pattering rain a nocturne;
the whispering breeze a pastoral.
In the living room of your country place,
a Reproducing Piano equipped with the
Welte'Mignon* will bring to you the music
of the world, interpreted by the immortal
pianists of the past and present generations.
In effect, you have as your guests such
masters as Paderewski, Hofmann, Grieg,
Dohnanyi, Ganzi or Lhevinne, to play for
you at any time—at your command. The
Welte-Mignon* reproduces their playing not
merely approximately, but exactly as they
played when they made the master record.
You can have practically your choice of in-
strument equipped with the Welte'Mignon*
for this artistic mechanism is being built
into nearly every prominent make of piano,
both upright and grand. ,
Words cannot describe the artistic accom'
plishment of the Welte'Mignon*. You can
appreciate its musical importance only by
hearing it. Visit a nearby dealer today.
He will be pleased to demonstrate its won'
derful capabilities.
An interesting brochure concerning the
Welte'Mignon* and the names of dealers in
your vicinity will be mailed upon request to
the Auto Pneumatic Action Co., 649 West
51st Street, New York.

The Welte-Mignon* is an electrically impelled mechanism, which when built into a piano, either upright
or grand, plays the instrument in exactly the same way that some talented musician played when he
made the master record. It is practically invisible and does not interfere with manual playing. It is
obtainable in nearly every prominent make of piano, a few of which are listed below:
Baldwin
Bush & Lane
Hardman
Ivers & Pond
Krakauer
Kranich & Bach
Kurtzmann
Mathushek
Mehlin & Son
Poole
Sohmer
Stieflf

Future scanning projects are planned by the International Arcade Museum Library (IAML).
