Music store Allan's is still in existence, as Allans Billy Hide. The Melbourne CBD store is now located at 152 Bourke St.
The name SONORA is derived from the latin verb SONARE, to make a noise. Its logo was a bell, with the slogan 'clear as a bell'. Two players are advertised on this sleeve, the 'Barcarolle' and the 'Etude'.
