Grand, Square, and Upright PIANO-FORTES, New York. Since the period in which JONAS CHICKERING established this house (1823), 30,000 Pianos have been constructed and finished under his supervision and that of his sons, for the superiority of which FIFTY SIX MEDALS have been awarded them at exhibitions in the United States, being the Highest Premiums over all Competitors. They also received the PRIZE MEDAL AT THE WORLD'S FAIR IN LONDON, in 1851 The names of THALBERG, BENEDICT, and D. BLACK, need only be referred to, to show of what a class the judges upon this occasion were composed. The attention of the public is especially requested to New Scales, Plain, and Overstrung GRAND AND SQUARE PIANO-FORTES. which, for quality, strength, and purity of tone, delicacy of action, and general style of finish, are unsurpassed by any Pianos now offered to the public. This fact has been attested to by the leading artists of this country and of Europe. It may be satisfactory to our patrons and friends among the public at large, to state that testimonials have been received from all the leading Artists who have visited or are now residing in the United States, a few of whose names we append: RICHARD HOFFMAN says: "I play upon Chickerings' Piano solely, both in public and in private. I use them myself and recommend them over all others." Richard Hoffman's indorsement |
