<DIV>Don't forget the very small and pretty overdamped Broadwood
'cottage ' pianos circa 1870's with fretted and silk lined top panels
These also remind me of the similar sized French Bord pianos which are also
overdamped and which can still have an amazingly attractive singing tone
and excellent damping.</DIV>
