Robin,
I'm not sure of the measurements as I had them in my file and did not =
measure it again this past week when I tuned. (But reflecting, it is a =
good distance to the tail of the piano from the keyboard.) I just =
thought I would try to find out it's approximate age since the serial =
number was apparently removed when the piano was "restored" back in '84 =
when the church purchased the instrument.  I know it has "133" cast into =
the plate at the tail end and has "Anniversary Grand" cast on the plate =
under the bass strings in front of the agraffes.

I guess I really started a big discussion on Chickering.

Thanks,
Ken Gerler

Hello Kenneth,
     Are you sure the piano was actually a 133 - I think, unless I am
mistaken, that a 133 would be c. 5'8".  Perhaps the model designation
says 123 in the stamping on the plate.  Sometimes these are a little
diffuse and could be ambiguous.
Regards, Robin Hufford
