Wurlitzer Harp This beautiful instrument is conceded by every one who has seen and heard it to be the most wonderful as well as the sweetest musical instrument ever produced. The Harp contains sixty strings which are picked by automatic fingers (almost human in their operation), and produces a volume of soft, sweet music equal to several Italian Harps picked by hand. The face of the instrument is covered by a large harp-shaped plate glass, showing the interior lit up by electric lights and the wonderful little fingers picking the strings. This feature gives the instrument an exceedingly attractive appearance. Like all of our automatic instruments, the Harp is operated by electricity and perforated paper music rolls; it is simple in construction and requires little more attention than the ordinary electric piano. The music rolls contain six selections each, and are operated by our automatic rewinding device, the same as in the Pianino. It also has a coin-detector slot which prevents the use of spurious coins to operate it. Yale locks are used throughout. The case is beautifully figured quartersawed or weathered oak, with rich moulding, panels and scroll work, finished in every detail to conform with the beautiful instrument it incloses and will prove an ornament in any place. As a money maker in fine hotels, cafes, restaurants, cigar and drug stores the harp has proven itself to be the King of them all; its soft, sweet music making it exceptionally popular in places where other instruments would be too loud. THE PIANORCHESTRA Has established the fact that perfect music can be rendered by mechanical means. The Pianorchestra is certainly a wonderful instrument. 16 Styles. Prices, $1,200 to $5,000.
