Artronome gives to all the family the kind of music each likes best.
First there is the Straube piano with its glorious tone. For the children's
music lessons it is such an instrument that encourages and inspires. Its
touch is a delight to musicianly fingers, the beauty of its tone a source
of constant joy.
Then there is the Artronome, an easily operated, dependable action
for roll playing, which enables anyone to play expressively selections
from the whole range of music—popular songs, the latest dance tune, or
the more stately measures of the classics.
As the years pass the Straube Artronome becomes more and more one
of the family. The memories of happy hours cling to it, fuse with its
voice and give an added meaning to the beauty of its tone. It remains
ever ready to provide music to suit the mood or the occasion, proving by
its staunch dependability the high quality which it embodies.
The Artronome is designed, patented
and built by Straube and installed only
in Straube-made pianos. Your dealer
