 c. 1872 J. H. Gemrig Instrument Catalog

No. 109 South Eight Street

Philadelphia

 

 

Page 1

This is one of the earliest known comprehensive instrument catalogs by a major American instrument maker.   It dates to after the Civil War, c. 1872 (per the 109 South Eight St. address), but most of the instruments would have been available during the Civil War or before depending on the configuration.  The original of this catalog is in my private collection and none of the pages may be used on another web site.  Reproduction of the various pages are available at no charge if you would please request permission to print them.  All rights reserved.

 

Catalog inside cover and table of contents are the first two pages shown below.
