Steinway Centennial Grand Pianos

Post by Mangeot Brothers »

I am intersted in this breed and believe that some went to your part of the world. 1876,77,78. Full plate sostenuto 88 notes 8ft10 constructed case"
The ones in the US always seem to have the Serpintine Legs, however I believe that they werent always made like that and that some were made with the flowerpot style legs, still regarded as Centennial but not so loud in style. All have the leaf carvings at the keyboard edges and 2 by continuous half round mouldings for the perimeter of the rim. Interested in other opinions of this thoroughbred!
Theres often more to the story, dont give up the search!
