Marcel, Can you scan and send me any good pics you have? Send them to me personally and I'll post it to the list on my web site as a URL. Hope we hear more about him... Do you know his first name? I searched for Patents with the Inventor Tallone and didn't see any that looked piano related.. This is a great patent site: http://www.depatisnet.de Thanks, David Stanwood > >David, > >I had the pleasure to meet Mr Tallone somewhere in the 70 before I >became a piano tech. He came and visited my father at the Orford Art >Center for a week. I might still have pictures of the two of them >working on pianos in little huts in the wood. I remember my father >telling me about his inventions ( a second tuning adjustment that >would be a micro-tuning pin that raised or lowered the string between >the Vbar and tuning-pin). I think he had many patents for pianos. I >wonder if someone could find out about these from the Italian patents >(I guess there might be a slight langage thing there though). > >This subject brings back some good old memories for me. > >Thanks for bringing this man's name up David. > >Marcel Carey >Sherbrooke, QC
