From the late 19th century through the 1950s, Chicago was the powerhouse of American musical instrument manufacturing. Among the most active makers was the Regal Musical Instrument Company. Descended from an Indianapolis business, Regal made a full complement of stringed instruments for a variety of brands. Along the way, the company even introduced a few new musical novelties into the market. This book is an addendum to Regal Musical Instruments: 1895-1955 and includes previously unused sources, including period catalogs and many illustrations along with color photos taken specifically for this publication.
