Squier Company (1890-1975) [ ], a young immigrant who arrived in, in the latter part of the 19th century, was a farmer and shoemaker who had learned the fine European art of making. He moved to in 1881, where he built and repaired violins with his son, Victor Carroll Squier.
To this day, their violins are noted for their exceptional varnishes, and they command high prices as fine examples of early U.S. Instrument craftsmanship. Squier ranks among the best-known U.S.-trained violin makers and is often referred to as 'the American Stradivarius.' Victor returned to Battle Creek, where he opened his own shop in 1890. As his business grew, Squier moved the company to 429 Lake Ave. And eventually to 427 Capitol Ave, S.W.—the famous 'fiddle factory' of Battle Creek. With a limited market for violins in Battle Creek, however, Squier astutely sought relationships with national music schools and famous violinists.
