Hi All, As our wonderful Canadian pianos get older and older metal plates are beginning to fail. I've only seen a very few but today for the first time there was a "repeat" on the make. It was a Mason and Risch larger upright with open plate and pressure bars serial #5333. I hope this is not a trend!
