How old.
Willis was a Canadian manufacturer. They started production in 1869.
In 1965, they were up to 47,000 units.
Went out of business in late 70's or early 80's.

  Does anyone know who made Willis pianos? I assume it is a stencil made for Willis Music in Cincinnati. Any possibility someone has access to more recent serial numbers that could date this bird for me? It is a Willis G-1A #8610195

  Thanks!
