HE RULERS and NOBILITY of the Old
World have conferred upon no other Amer
ican manufacturer, certainly no other man
ufacturer of musical instruments, so many
or such distinguished honors' as upon The Aeolian
Company.
A single Royal Appointment, or several, may not
be of commanding significance. But a practically
unanimous preference, such as has been accorded
Aeolian instruments, is an endorsement so absolute
and unqualified that few indeed are the instances
where superiority has been so marked as to win it.
Birth, breeding, travel, training, opportunity and
experience make the ruler a critical and discriminat
ing gentleman of culture. He commands the best in
persons and genius; he is constantly brought in touch
with the highest in art, literature and music.
To his subjects, his approval of any article is a
conclusive evidence of merit. To Americans, whose

thought is bound by no Old World restrictions of caste,
a Royal Appointment is significant because it indicates
a selection under circumstances that make quality the
only consideration.
Six Royal Appointments have been granted The
Aeolian Company. Pope Pius X bestowed the Papal
Appointment. And in France the Cross of the Legion
of Honor has been conferred an honor equivalent to
the Royal Appointment conferred by Monarchical
governments.
It is particularly noteworthy that the petition for the Cross of
the Legion of Honor was signed and sponsored by practically every
prominent French musician of the present generation.
Although The Pianola and other Aeolian instruments are the ,
choice of Royalty and of the wealthy and cultured everywhere, they
are by no means the most costly. The great Aeolian organization
has so powerfully applied scientific management, quantity production
and the other important methods of modern commerce which tend
to reduce costs, that Aeolian instruments today represent not only
highest quality but also greatest value lowest actual prices, quality for
quality.
