---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hello Tom, I am of the opinion that Kimball never put any number or letter designations on their plate. Most other manufactures did. If it is a Kimball it will have a "Thayer" action. This action is easy to recognize by the jack. There were several manufactories that made pianos without casting names in the plate, only decals. Many times these can be identified by the actions. Generally the jacks will tell the the true story. A given manufactures may build different whips but the jack will almost always be the same. If you will send a picture, copy or a good drawing of the whip and jack, usually I can tell you what action brand it is and this will help identify the brand of piano. In the PTG Foundation Museum I have displayed my personal collection of jacks all but one are identified. I hope Joe Garrett can help me on this one. He has agreed to help in identifying some rare tools. Regard's Jack Wyatt ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
