Steinway pianos carry along with
them such certainty of satisfac
tion from one generation to
another; such economy in their
minimum of maintenance cost;
:uich wealth of musical qualityalways; such
helpfulness to everyone that plays on them; such
charm for the listener that, whatever amount of
money is paid for them, there is an inestimable bal
ance of profit to the owner. Steinway tone of today
is more beautiful than ever before. Mechanically,
there is no rival in musical instrument making.
Edison Diamond Disc Phonographs make their own
standards. No other reproduction is so precise, so complete
in every ehadc of expression, so satisfying: as to volume. No
mechanical troubles; plays all records.
