Nearly five year ago, in a Veal estate
newr item, to be exact, on January 24,
1804. the Oregonlan said:
"The southeast quarter block at Thir
teenth and Northrup streets, has been
bought by Eilers Piano House, On thl
property4 a three story brick building
will be erected. A large three story
frame structure now on the ground will
be moved over to the Northrup Bid of
th lot and devoted to factory purposes.
Experimental work toward building
pianos has been carried on by thla firm
at the preaent warehouse at Thirteenth
and Marshall streets, and th new fac
tory will b completely equipped ror
the manufacture of the Eilers' piano."
Thus the Eilers piano ha developed
Into an instrument that w can point
to with personal pride, and say to any
one, ana - especially- the most critical
