The Pierce Piano Atlas is a great tool for approximating piano ages and is useful for informing customers.  I am  currently working on a Vose Upright for our Church Hall which is 108 years old...made in 1895...and is getting an overhaul at this time over the summer. Our Pastor was amazed when I told him how old their piano was...</P> <P> </P> <P>So...hang tight and with a little luck we'll have some new reference material in the not too distant future.</P> <P> </P> <P>Marc P.
