Frank, I looked at a Hoffman/Feurich about 8 or 9 years ago. At the time they were identical. I think the sell-out to Bechstein came a bit later. As may be -- the piano was one of the best designs I've yet seen come out of Germany. It was also quite nicely built. Had it not been for the extremely hard Renner hammers it would probably also have been the best sounding German piano around. I have no knowledge of the companies prior history or what happened to it later. I do hope that the piano is still around.
