<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#008000>Recently I put on a new set of
hammers, and restored a moth-eaten action on a salon size HOWARD
VINCENT grand. It's a little gem. I haven't been able to find any
information on it through the internet, or Pierce Piano Atlas. NSN. It appears
to have been built in the '20's.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#008000>I wonder if Howard
Vincent is somehow connected to the legacy of Howard pianos by Baldwin
& Kawai.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#008000></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>This is not of great importance, but, a Howard Grand is on display in the
<BR>home/farm of Amy and Ike<BR>Eisenhower in Gettysburg, PA. It was the
family piano. Couldn't get close <BR>enough to get the SN.<BR>Regards,
