In 1936 Baldwin introduced the Acrosonic Spinet piano which was to become the largest selling piano type of all time, the single most popular instrument in the world. It was one of the few pianos built during World War 2. None were manufactured after 2005. At one time the spinet was the most popular, most sought after used for "beginners" - "student model", and was popular until after the 1980’s and those still in use number over 1 million. Most modern teachers and musicians would prefer the taller pianos with direct blow action instead of the drop action found in the shorter spinet pianos. The Spinet vertical piano is not to be confused with the much older Spinet' which was a small harpsichord.
