SB plank width (was:Soundboard Thoughts of Marilyn Monroe)

[Jon Page]

I have an interesting piano in my shop.
An old Mathushek upright with 1" or so
strips comprising the sb. The ribs fan out
from the top treble section.
My atlas dates it about 1888 (#18901).
It is keeping company with an 1866 S&S upright.
