Is it parallel strung or overstrung? You know, in the UK in that same period there were many small "cottage industry" workshops makling cheap pianos for the domestic parlor, and there are still lots of the pianos around. They're pretty useless as pianos, most of them (unlike 'your' Ibach I am sure) but they have lovely veneers and inlays, the like of which we just don't see today except on the very highest-end instruments.  Wood, and carpentry craftsmanship, were cheaper in those days!
