Piano history names of pianos by Bill Kibby of pianoGen

PIANO NAME INDEX

We deal with over twenty thousand names, and it would be impractical to list them all here, but the following lists, although incomplete, show dates for some of the earlier names. Early directories do not always discriminate between Pianoforte makers and other Musical Instrument makers, and their spelling may not be accurate. Repeated names show that there could be more than one entry for the same firm, or different firms of the same name.
