Steinway: The Instrument Of The Immortals

[callmemadam]

Not my words but taken from advertisements of the 1920s. I love the blog Read, Seen, Heard for its wonderful images. Today, these superb advertisements for Steinway pianos. Scroll past the Gillette razors and enjoy!

Thanks for the link, I think I'll add that to my list of things to look at!

I saw the first advert featuring Igor Paderewski, and he looks like he could have 12 fingers! Then in the second one, he bears a passing resemblance to Frank Zappa.

Maybe I just need a cup of coffee…

I have it bookmarked.

Frank Zappa: hee!

Isn't it lovely? A public service, IMO.
