[pianotech] 1810 Johann Fritz piano forte

[Gene Nelson]

I work there again on the 5th. I will try to find out who owns it, where it
lives etc. It was just passing through and I missed most of it except for
the pics I posted.
Can't tell you anything more about it right now.
Sorry.
Gene

Hi Gene, had it been restored, and if so do you know by whom? The dampers
look like appropriate leather wedges and the hammers look like leather in
the little I can see past the edge of the moderator. It all looks very clean
and nice. I'd love to see some shots of the action...
