Dale, Forty was a musical, piano, organ, musical instrument & voice shop in Cheltenham with branches in Birmingham, Cardiff, Cirencester, Kidderminster, Leamington & Wolverhampton.
Established 1800.
The piano shop did not manufacture any instruments themselves, the serial numbers are from (unknown) manufacturers that Dala, Forty sold.
Or is it a Chinese product, so the serial number could be from the recent past.

Dale, Forty war ein Geschäft für Musicals, Klaviere, Orgeln, Musikinstrumente und Stimmen in Cheltenham mit Niederlassungen in Birmingham, Cardiff, Cirencester, Kidderminster, Leamington und Wolverhampton.
1800 gegründet.
Der Klavierladen hat selbst keine Instrumente hergestellt, die Seriennummern stammen von (unbekannten) Herstellern, die Dala, Forty verkauft hat.
Oder handelt es sich um ein chinesisches Produkt, sodass die Seriennummer aus der jüngeren Vergangenheit stammen könnte.
