Hello. I just know that Bechstein pianos (Berlin) used the Isermann action somewhere between 1880 and 1890. The ones that I have seen were more badly worn than Schwander actions of the same period. If you like, you can see some pics comparing those actions at this place : http://fr.be.msnusers.com/Bechsteinlovers/herrbrugerschwander.msnw Best regards, Stephane Collin. ----- Original Message ----- From: <amstrat_fender@mail.ru> To: <pianotech@ptg.org> Sent: Tuesday, July 16, 2002 5:36 PM Subject: Isermann action | Hi Room! | I need your help! | The piano in great conditions.
