<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Re: [CAUT] Hornung and Moller?</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <FONT FACE="Verdana">The 1984 Musician’s Piano Atlas (an English near equivalent of Pierce) lists them up to 1972, at which point the serial # was 54401. Founded around 1840, Copenhagen. A typical size European maker, looks like they never made as many as 1000 in a year. One assumes they folded after 1972.<BR> Regards,<BR> Fred Sturm<BR> University of New Mexico <BR> <BR> <BR> On 8/24/07 2:29 PM, "David M.

These are 1971 grands with two pedals. They have Renner actions.
