PREFACE

The purpose of this atlas is to provide a handy pocket index of the names of pianos, their manufac- turer, and their dates of production. It will be of great value in relating the piano's history to the piano salesman, the piano buyer, piano tuners, and to the piano industry in general. Concisely compiled within this booklet is infor- mation, acquired over a period of the past ten years, by its author; this information has been elaborated upon and a unique systematized product is now in your hands.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE

In order to find any information about a piano, first locate the name of the piano in an alphabetical manner; It will be noticed in many cases that serial num- bers skipped as from fifty thousand to two hundred thousand; this is due to the piano being manufactured by a different company than the original owner; the new owner having a higher serial number than the original owner; this is not always true, as in some cases the original numbers are continued by the nev manufacturer. It is also true that some pianos may have two dif- ferent manufacturers the same year and two different serial numbers but this is mostly due to the piano be- ing a "stencil", or a piano made for some particular dealer who uses his own trade name. "FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DECIDE THE AGE OF ANY PIANO". Be sure the manufacturer has his name on the iron plate or sound- ing board, or some other identification other than what you may find on the fall-board. Many stencil pianos without the above identification may have any name put on the fall-board. The name on the fall-board does not necessarily guarantee the name of the manufacturer.

Mr. Beatty commenced business only eight years ago without one dollar, a poor and unknown ploughboy. He is to-day the most successful man in his line in the world, doing a business of several millions annually.
