From Wikipedia
Behr Brothers was a New York based piano company founded in 1880 and hailed as a major contributor to the piano industry of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Henry Behr of Hamburg, Germany initially established a piano company in New York alongside Leopold Peck in 1877, named "Behr & Peck", which operated until 1879. In 1880, Behr and his brother Edward Behr went into partnership to form "H. Behr and Brother Piano Company", although this later changed to "Behr, Brother and Company", followed by "Behr Brothers & Company". The company was taken over by Kohler & Campbell in 1910, who continued to produce pianos under the Behr name until the 1950s.
