Baldwin
Pianos bearing this well known and an
honorable name is the product of The Baldwin Piano and in the best sense
of the word, instruments of the highest degree of excellence. The system
or chain of scientific improvements of the Baldwin piano based on
the law of acoustics, and known as the Baldwin acoustic system, which
permitted the greatest conservation of tone, secures an artistic result of
the highest quality, and has resulted in gaining for. It enjoys a leading
position among the world's artistic musical instruments.
Baldwin is now owned by the Gibson Guitar Company.
Historically: The Baldwin piano has an
individuality of the highest character. When it was exhibited at
the International Exposition at Paris in 1900 it was honored
with an award (The Grand Prix) which has never been bestowed on
any, other American piano, and the highest honor ever received
by any, piano made In America. The Baldwin pianos are made in
most modem and perfectly equipped factories under ideal
manufacturing conditions. At the Louisiana Purchase Exposition,
St. Louis, Mo., 1904, the Baldwin piano was again awarded the
Grand Prize and still another Grand Prize was awarded the
Baldwin pianos and Manualos at the Anglo-American
Exposition, London, 1914. The "New York
Tribune," in commenting on the comprehensive
display of the Baldwin Company at Paris, and the
success of this piano and this house, said that
they made a record that would never he forgot in
the history of uprights, grands and reproducing
pianos, the grands including the various sizes
from concert grands to small grands for parlors.
In Rome, 1923, the Baldwin piano was awarded the
Papal Medal and the House of Baldwin appointed
"Purveyors to the Holy See." The
Baldwin piano is recognized as a universal
favorite between the leading operatic artists and
virtuosos of the pianoforte. The Baldwin Manualo is a
unification of the most artistic piano with the most scientific
players' construction; in other words, it combines the highest
artistic attainment in piano production with the most gratifying
ability of performance.

Piano, designed, built and guaranteed by the
Baldwin Company is used
exclusively by the first rank of artists in all
spheres of musical expression - pianists,

inch grand, every Baldwin embodies the latest
concepts of acoustical science and piano making,
