We fee satisfied that there are no Pianos made in this
country superior TO own.
As Philadelphia Manufacturers We pride ourselves in
having achieved reputation for instruments unoN-
CetG by any other makers in this country. It is welt
X own fact that Pianos have for many Years main
tanod their high reputation notwthstandng tho powerful

New York and BCs on Pianos have been flooded into
this market through their agencies, hcraded by them
as the only Pianos In the country yet the time

makers instruments for any length OF time, for tho
that they inferior, and they are compelled to take
hold Of other makers, perhaps stin inferior,
although pufed Up by them celebrated Pianos, when
at the time such makers have mover been
known or heard OF in their cities The consequence
s that our ct1ous often induced purch such
inferior instruments, without considering ther
general interests OF their city.
