Yep, they were pot metal and you couldn't get replacements for a long time.  I believe it was Amereican Piano finally got some and I bought a dozen or so.. That was 20 yrs ago and I haven't needed one since.  Living right!

I used to take care of one of these that belonged to a little old lady who lived in a tiny, two room house. Another tech had gotten her the piano for nothing, and we tried to keep it functional for her until she eventually moved into assisted living after several years. I seem to recall that the metal 'stickers' were pot-metal, and were failing left & right. The chicken piano, we called it!

Hi All. 

I ran across this one on a dealer floor today. This is the first time I have seen a drop action that could pass for a console because of the 'sticker' configuration. 

Attached are some photos. 

BTW - the piano was made in 1947, and has plastic hammer flanges and damper flanges as OEM. Some got changed today (grr). 

enjoy.
