The Haynes Book - 1945

At the NFA Convention in Chicago in August 2022, we were approached by someone who was given this item by a friend and thought we might be interested in having it. What this item was is this PERFECT condition book, simply entitled “The Flute” which was made by the Haynes Company just a few short years after Mr Haynes passed away in 1945, and his widow Lola Haynes took over the company.

This fascinating insight not only into the Haynes company but also into flute playing of the era is a perfect little snapshot of flute history. It’s available to view and browse through when you visit the Haynes Workshop in Acton, MA, but It was in such amazing condition, we thought we would also scan it and share it here for the whole flute community around the world to enjoy.
