Great idea, Chris! Thanks! Joy! Elwood From: caut-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of Chris Solliday Sent: Wednesday, May 06, 2009 8:33 AM To: caut at ptg.org Subject: Re: [CAUT] Steinway Serial # Elwood, You might want to use that marker again and write the number on the front of the key frame. Sometimes we have more than one action in the shop and it can be a help at that point, also it is less likely to be erased in cleaning or by, believe it or not, pianists who rub it out.

I found it on top of the pedal lyre (at least easier than taking off a leg) and is now permanently (tongue in cheek) inscribed on the plate in its proper place thanks to a Sharpie Permanent Marker...fine point...black (I started to use an engraver but thought better of it). It was not on the key slip, the fallboard, anywhere on the keybed, soundboard, action cavity nor anywhere else one would think to look. So I took Ed's advice and pulled the pedal lyre.
