<BR>rebuild. There is no brand name on the fall board or on the plate, and
<BR>no serial number on the plate. Any suggestions how to go about
<BR>discovering the brand? Any distinguishing marks to identify?

<BR>The piano looks to be in the neighborhood of 100 years old. It has a
<BR>Wessel, Nickle, Gross action. So it may have been a fairly good
<BR>instrument at one time.
