I can't give you dates but it was made by Sejung in their factory in Qingdao, China. Perhaps an inquiry to <<a href="http://www.sejungusa.com">www.sejungusa.com</a>> (American Sejung Corporation, 866-473-5864) will provide further information.<div> Patrick Draine <div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 22, 2008 at 5:56 AM, Phil Bondi <<a href="mailto:phil@philbondi.com">phil@philbondi.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> Hi all. I have a client who is interested in the age of his Falcone. GF-42 - IJ 8552 Pierce was not much help with this one. I thought the "IJ" would help to point me to the correct manufacturer, but it didn't..at least not in my Pierce. The "GF-42" font on the plate has a resemblance to something Piano Disc may have manufactured..but who was making their pianos? the words "Piano Disc" do not appear on the plate. Any help is appreciated. curious as always, -Phil Bondi(Fl) </blockquote></div> </div>
