All too often, though, T imitators simply copy appearance, and fail to build in hidden features that make the original so popular. So it is with Reisner's Relay Magnet, praised by organ builders throughout the world for its reliability. Bases, for instance, are made on our own die-casting machines for strength and precision, as well as absolute quality control. Contact fingers are sterling silver, and armatures are mounted on bushing felt to virtually eliminate action noise. Until features like these are copied, your best assurance of genuine relay magnet reliability is to specify REISNER. . , THE o~~ MFG. CO.
