Present the very highest excellence yet attained in such instruments.
For ORGANS, these makers have been awarded highest honors at EVERY GREAT WORLD'S INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION FOR SEVENTEEN YEARS; no other American Organs having been found equal to them in even one such comparison. Skill matured and facilities perfected by the manufacture of 150,000 organs enable them to make to-day better instruments than ever before. ONE HUNDRED STYLES, adapted to all uses, from $22 to $900 and up. Illustrated catalogues, 46 pp. 4to, free.
They have recently commenced the manufacture of UPRIGHT PIANOFORTES, combining all previous excellences with a very important improvement of their own, tending to greater purity and refinement of tone and especially durability. This has been pronounced the greatest improvement made in Upright Pianos in half a century. Every piano of their make will illustrate that VERY HIGHEST EXCELLENCE which has always characterized their organs. Illustrated and descriptive circulars free.
