1892 - "In Northampton Street Messrs. Barnett Samuel & Sons' organ factory likewise is in full swing. Independently of their well-known old styles, they are producing now a one-row organ with divided octave coupler, in a carved solid walnut case; also a one-and-a-halfrow organ with double couplers, in handsomely designed walnut case. Both instruments are at a moderate price. At Worship Street the sale of the Chicago Cottage Organ is rapidly extending. The demand increased so suddenly during last month that their stock was temporarily quite denuded, and they had to cable for fresh supplies. Style 55, of which Messrs. Barnett Samuel & Sons sold over five hundred in Great Britain, is still a favourite, but is likely to be run hard by the new Style 905. " Music Trades Review, 1892, p. 29

"Pianoforte. Dies ist gegenwärtig das allgemein beliebte Saiten-Instrument, welches in London so vorzüglich verfertigt, und von da fast in alle Gegenden der Welt verfandt wird. Die Einführung ist neu, und von deutscher Abkunst, wie mir Herr Schoene folgendermaßen erzählt hat. Man hatte nämlich vorhin in Deutschland sogenannte „Hammerklaviere, in welchen nur hölzerne Hammer gegen die Saiten schlugen. Johannes Zumpe, ein Klaviermacher aus Fürth, wollte sich in London niederlassen. Vor seiner Hinreise, munterte Bach (vermuthlich der verewigte Hamburgische) ihn auf, das Hammerklavier, nach der jezigen Art, zu verbessern, d. i. mit Leder anzuschlagen, und Dämpfer anzubringen. Daher der Namen Pianoforte. Es war im J. 1705, als Zumpe die ersten kleinen Pianofortes in London verfertigte. Sie erhielten den bekannten Beifall, und sind seitdem zu größeren Vollkommenheiten gebracht worden. Nach dem Ableben von Zumpe, wurde defen Fabrik von seinem Landsmann, den schongedachten Schoene, fortgesetzt. Gegenwärtig lautet die Firma: Schoene und Reyh. Manchem Liebhaber möchte das Verzeichniß ihrer Artikel, nebst den beigefügten Preisen nicht unwillkommen seyn. Große oder Royal-Pianofortes (Grand Pianofortes), von sechs Oktaven, 85 Guineas; Do. von 5. Okt. 75 Guin. kleine (Small Pianofortes) mit zirkelrunden Enden, 6 Okt. 3 Pedale, 60 Guineas; Do. 54 Okt. 54. Guineas; Do. viereckig, 6 Okt. 46 G.; Do. do. 5. Okt. 40 G.; Do.do. kleiner, 54 Okt. 32 G. Die folgenden find ohne Zusatz-Tasten (Additiona Keys): viereckige, 6 Fuß lang, 36 G.; Do. 54 Fuß, 26 G.; die gemeinen und kleinsten, 20 Guineas. Diese Preise sind von Schoene und Reyh; ähnliche gute Arbeiten können von andern wohl nicht zu geringeren Preisen geliefert werden. Es sind kurante Preise; nach Beschaffenheit der Bestellungen, finden natürlich auffrordentliche Statt. Reise-Pianofortes (Travelling Pianofortes) sind nur 3 Fuß lang, und haben 4 Oktaven, 12 Guineas; sie werden lediglich für Rußland gemacht. Alle die übrigen gehen nach Spanien, Amerika, Rußland und in geringeren Quantitäten, nach mehreren Weltgegenden."

"Na het overlijden van SUMPE [sic], werd deszelfs Fabriek door zijn landsman, den voornoemden SCHOENE, voortgezet. Tegenwoordig luidt de Firma SCHOENE en REIJK. Menig liefhebber zal het register hunner artikulen, met bijgevoegde prijzen, niet welkom zijn.
