Company History
Albert Schoenhut, a German immigrant whose father and grandfather were toymakers, designed and built his first toy piano in 1872. The little instrument proved to be so popular that he established a business to manufacture a variety of toy piano styles and sizes. Albert later produced The Humpty Dumpty Circus, and a large variety of other toys and musical instruments.
When Albert died in 1912, his five sons continued operations at their factory in Philadelphia. The company was run for many years by various family members until the last relative involved in the business retired. In 1984, the Trinca family purchased Schoenhut Piano Company, which is managed by them and headquartered in St. Augustine, Florida. Under the Trinca's leadership, Schoenhut Piano Company has remained in the forefront of the music industry by developing new models and expanding its line of musical instruments.
Schoenhut toy pianos have delighted generations of families for decades. Demonstrating their popularity and durability, vintage models are avidly sought by collectors and featured at many prestigious museums and galleries throughout the world. For example, exhibits at Strong Museum in Rochester, NY and the Nuremberg Toy Museum in Germany provide an overview of the company's rich and interesting heritage. |
