In addition to their established styles of Piano-fortes, STEINWAY & SONS, in order to meet a long-felt and frequently-expressed want by persons of moderate means, teachers, schools, etc., have perfected arrangements for the manu. acture of an entirely new style of instrument, termed THE "SCHOOL" PIANO, A thoroughly complete instrument of 7 octaves, precisely the same in size, scale, interior mechanism and workmanship, as their highest-priced 7 octave Pianos, the only difference being that this new style of instrument is constructed in a perfectly plain, yet exceedingly neat exterior case. These new instruments will be supplied to those who desire to possess a thoroughly first-class "Steinway Piano," yet are limited in means, AT EXCEEDINGLY MODERATE PRICES. STEINWAY & SONS also desire to call special attention to their new Patent Upright Pianos, With Double Iron Frame, Patent Resonator, Tubular Frame Action, and new soft Pedal, which are matchless in volume and quality of tone, and surpassing facility of action, whilst standing longer in tune and being more impervious to atmospheric influences than any other Piano at present manufactured.
