Description

Mrs. T. Mann Prettyman is shown with one of her most prized possessions, a rare Longman and Broderip Spinet. The five-octave keyboard and rather elementary action were steps in the evolution of the modern piano. Mrs. Prettyman has a wrench in her hand as she brings up to pitch one of the brass strings. She is wearing a dress with a beaded design along the front. Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, December 21, 1941.
