To,  who ever you are,

     
    The " Bush & Lane "  is in my opinion 
( and many others) is the single best upright 
piano ever built.  I say this with  50+  years 
experience in rebuilding pianos.  Several
being B&L.  There were two sizes one real big 
and the other bigger. We called them Jumbo, Jr. 
and  Jumbo.  
    
       The Strauch Bros. name referred to the
maker of  the action and keys.   The Strauch
Bros. began in 1867 and were located in  N.Y. 
City.  Their actions were of the highest quality. 
   
     Walter Lane  built pianos for and with  A.B.
Chase for four years then went into business
with one of the Bush family, of "Bush and Gerts". 
      Market wise (dollar value) your upright is worth 
little on the open market.
     However the musical value is an entirely  different
story.   A properly restored  " Bush & Lane" upright
in performance and durability  would out perform  6ft. 
to 6.5 and the majority of 7ft. and some 9 ft. Grands.
     Statements above are (as I said) my opinions
After you have restored eight or nine of these pianos
you may say as I did,  wow, I can't believe this     
      
      If anyone knows of a "Bush and Lane", in good 
condition,  for sale please let me know.  I would like
to rebuild,  just  one more.    

  Regards, to all,
  Jack Wyatt
