Hello Fred, The 'Koninklijke Nederlandse Pianofabriek' had a factory in Tilburg, the Netherlands owned by M.J.H. Kessels. They started in 1880 with sheetmusic and later sold and manufactured all kinds of instruments. They closed the piano department in1922. I couldn't find a list with serial numbers but I found a website where you can ask for more info.(http://www.muziekinstrumentenmuseum.nl/index.php?cmd=content&cat=45&mit=6) Click on contact and fill in the email form. The website is in Dutch, so if you need some help please let me know. Regards Arnold Duin PS I included a picture of an advertisement of the piano.
