They make the "Heritage" Collection for the Hallet Davis and Company, Boston (H&D) piano line. The Heritage Collection is the entry-level line for H&D, with the smallest upright pianos, and smallest grand pianos (4'7") for the H&D family. The H&D is the oldest U.S. piano name dating back to 1843 with the same name, and 1835 under the Brown and Hallet name. The H&D piano name pre-dates the second oldest U.S. piano by Weber (1852), and the third oldest by Steinway and Sons (1853).
