These are from the Pease grand, circa 1909, that I'm working on. Notice the strange 3-pronged bi chord damper felts! First time I've ever seen this type. Not sure what the advantage over the typical wedge shape would be, but maybe they damp slightly faster since these touch *both* sides of the bi chords, making contact at all 4 sides?
