1John Markert & Company, 33 West 8th street, New York, have just issued their wholesale catalogue. The firm is well known as dealers and makers of violins, and the catalogue contains the wholesale prices of John Markert, Master violins, violas, 'cellos and double basses; in fact, everything pertaining to violins, such as strings, bridges, tail-pieces, pegs and mutes, is catalogued. The catalogue contains forty-eight pages with illustrations of the various necessities of this business.
3By having one of these catalogues one can select a desirable instrument by number. There are also instrument cases, music satchels and rolls as well as music stands. The catalogue states that "In selecting this catalogue we have brought to our assistance our years of experience as practical violin and bow makers and repairers. We have carefully canvassed the entire field, and selected the one article of each grade that appealed to us as the best value for the money."
5Mr. Boothe of the Boothe Knoslip Violin Pad has received some very flattering letters from violinists and dealers in violin accessories regarding the success of his ingenious device. According to Mr. Boothe that prejudice with which some artists are inclined to view any attachment to their instrument, is rapidly giving way in the face of the wonderful freedom given to the left hand by its use. The Boothe pad is a form of support that while it does away with the ordinary chin rest, enables the performer to hold his instrument in perfect position without the aid of his left hand. The device is so ingeniously constructed that it weighs but two ounces and is less exposed to view than the ordinary chin rest when the violin is correctly held. Mr. Boothe is making an unusual offer of ten days free trial to all members of the profession. His address is Suite 504, 203 South Dearborn St., Chicago.
