Bob,
I bought out a long-established Piano Store, years ago. In the stock, were
several sets (3) of leg ferrels. I have never had a need to use them, even
tho I specialize in the older pianos. I just checked the box and I have 3
styles. 2 of the styles are straight and 1 is tapered. If you have some
dimensions, I may have what you are looking for.
Regards,
Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
P.S.
The Store was an Aeolian Dealer, so the likelyhood is that they are from
Chickerings, etc. But, you never know. :-)
