G.E. Jackson piano -age?

Post by 4bigfoot »

Hello, I am inquiring about some potential information on a piano that I have. It looks like it is from the early 1900s a piano made by:
G.E. Jackson
48 Southgate Street
Leicester (UK)
It is a smaller piano (spinet) with a serial number 15899
GE Jackson was a store that sold pianos and I don't think they made them, so they were likely stencil pianos. Perhaps even if I could narrow the years down by the address. Some pianos have "46 and 48 Southgate". I think before 1890 their address may have been 36 Southgate street.
Do you have any info?
Thanks.

I have just answered your email on the same subject, it is a typical Edwardian piano, and the address puts it after 1899, I would guess 1904.
