§1 Piano of the Nation By Appointment to British Sovereigns from George IL to George V. ( The history of the House of Broadwood is one long record of triumphs over the complex problems which have barred the way to perfect music-making. The Broadwood of to-day has emerged from the crucible of time as near perfection as human ingenuity can make it. It is probable that in years to come others will similarly adopt most of the more recent improvements present in the Broadwood of to-day. For the time being, however, these are only to be found in Broadwood Pianos. The E. & F. Piano Agency have pleasure in announcing the full range of new Broadwood models, both upright and grand. The makers have reduced the prices of all Broad- ; wood Pianos, so that now this famous instrument can be bought at a figure that will find favour with all * f BROADWOOD MODEL No. 11. A small Upright of remarkable Tone. e "JC beautiful instrument and a true Broadwood was the opinion of a well-known professional pianist. For a small room this fine example of * Broadwood craftsmanship is particularly suitable j-the tone is remarkably full and even throughout, and the' tasteful simplicity of design will enable it to take its place in almost any scheme of furnishing. Price, £135. BROADWOOD MODEL No. 12. A beautiful Upright for the small drawing room at a moderate price. Introduced to meet the demand for a Pianoforte haying the musical characteristics of a full Upright Pianoforte, this new Model I \l bears eloquent witness to the care and thought devoted to its construction. The quality of the material and workmanship is of the best Broadwood standard, and allied to an exceptionally full tone of beautiful quality, and a very responsive and easy touch,, this instrument is one of which Broadwoods are justly proud.

Please send me Free, Broadwood Literature and particulars of Price and Terms. CV Name . Address e/ BROADWOOD MODEL No. 13. An exceptionally full tone of outstanding Quality is the characteristic of this charming Upright Piano. The Broadwood Model No. 1 3 is the happy medium between the full Upright Grand Model No. ,14 and the small drawing room Upright. Combining many of the musical advantages of the larger instrument, this model stands apart in its claim for the drawing room. Its wonderful tonal qualities, sonoroiis and profound, yet yielding to the tenderest appeal, are worthily sustained by a touch so delicately adjusted as to claim the admiration of the musical profession. Price, £195. BROADWOOD MODEL No. 14. The new Broadwood "Upright Grand" Piano. Space consideration in the modern home so often has to govern the choice of a piano that the need for an Upright Model possessing all or nearly all the musical advantages of the small Grand has become paramount. For many years past pianoforte-makers have described their largest and best production in "Cottage" Pianos as an Upright Grand, and the term has been so much abused of late years that it is often used in connection with the commonest of Uprights. The introduction of the new Broadwood Model rio. 14 is the first occasion on which the term " Upright Grand " can truthfully be applied. The-case- work is unique in every detail and the interior finish and brilliant tonal qualities are unquestionably the nearest representation to a Grand, with the big advantage that the floor space occupied by this model is very much less.Price, £2lO. BROADWOOD MODEL No. 102. The Broadwood Quarter Grand, a superb instrument, with the rich singing quality beloved by musicians. . How completely does the Quarter Grand Piano solve the problem of tasteful furnishing! The beautiful curve of its form, its easy adaptability to position, the way in which its lines fit into the scheme of things, make the Grand Piano even considered as a visible object only a pleasure, instead of an annoyance, to the aesthetic eye. And in its quality as a musical instrument the superiority of the Broadwood Quarter Grand is infinitely more supreme. Price, £315. IV
