<DIV><FONT size=2>Reading between the lines of the Atlas, if they were most
recently made by Kimball, p.191 of the 11th Ed. shows numbers with a "T" for
"Misc. Kimball Brand" (which the Sherman Clay stencil might be?). T21786
might be 1985.</FONT></DIV>

Clay</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=296412900-12032006>I had the
opportunity to work on a very nice Sherman Clay baby grand this afternoon.
Pitch raise, fine tune and a couple minor repairs. Everybody's happy. I then
went to look up the age of the piano, and while Pierce does have an entry for
Sherman Clay it doesn't have anything listed even close to this serial
number. Nor could I find anything on line. Many changes of ownership
for the Sherman Clay name has left an void for this Sherman Clay model
SDG1, serial number: G021786. Does anybody here know where else I might
look to find this date? </SPAN></FONT></DIV>
