It was stated by Michael Magness: "The music store I do tuning/tech work for has the owner's mother's piano on the floor for sale, one of the sales people asked me how old it was, I pulled out my older Atlas ('89) I keep in the car to look it up. It's a Baldwin 243 #299218, my atlas didn't go that high for Baldwin. The warranty packet was inside so I looked in it & it said 1975, when I got home i looked it up again in my new (11th edition) atlas it says 1992? Anyone have any ideas?" YUP!<G> In a way it's a Baldwin...Product....otherwise known as a Hamilton. Baldwin Co. like Broadwood, has a very screwed up numbering system, imnsho!<G> Best, Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
