Del, My husband, the ever helpful librarian, will look the book up to see if it's still in print. Otherwise, you might be able to get it on inter-library loan.

And it's available from where? Any place online that you know of? I doubt this work will be showing up in any book store near me any time soon. Or on Amazon.com for that. And then there are the transitional instruments built from 1820 up to about 1870. I've studied enough pianos from 1870 on to have a pretty good idea of what was going with them. It's those transitional instruments that remain a question. Del _______________________________________________ pianotech list info: https://www.moypiano.com/resources/#archives
