Post by kalitaylor3 »

Hello from New Zealand! I have recently inherited my Mother/Grandmothers piano. It had been professionally restored in the early 90's and has a serial number stamped inside #26532. Any information you have or where to find out more would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kali.

What sort of information are you hoping for? The number suggests that it was made in 1891, but dating pianos by their numbers is not always as easy as it seems, as you can read at

Can you post some photos of the whole piano here, or email them to me?
