[pianotech] Piano Name !

[George Bartlett]

Cliff,
Thanks very much they must have  used the name Saint Saens until Sherlock Manning closed, because this piano is a modern console model.
The tone after a fine tuning was exceptionally clear and bright for a console . I guess Sherlcok Manning never lost their tough.
Thanks again
Regards

  Made by Colonial Piano Company, Ste. Theresa, Quebec, Canada.  c. <1915 to 1927.


  Colonial was bought by Doherty.  Doherty was bought by Sherlock-Manning.
