Thanks Jack, but no. The piano is a massive "Mallory", with serpentine curved sides and gorgeous figured walnut veneer. The sides seem to be curved in this fashion to provide a wider back, with more sq. feet of soundboard area, while having this not resultin 10" wide cheekblocks! The refinisher ( or someone else ) lost the under-keybed control rods and levers ( as well as the keybed escutcheons ) sometime during the last 10 years that my friend has been having this restored. I am quite sure that a generous reward would be forthcoming for a set to buy or borrow, as the piano is in final re-assembly, and will be terribly hard to operate without these components. We would also consider buying an entire unrestored player just to get these parts.
