Seek "Anniversary Plate" for 1923 Chickering
By improve

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender --

Hello Everyone, I am rebuilding a 1923 Chickering baby grand and
on the top of the plate (harp) toward the keys there is an outline
of ("so I was told") an anniversary plate.  It is in the middle of
the second section of the treble pins coming from the right.  It has
two holes (for alignment, it seems) and looks like it was glued on.
Has anyone ever seen this plate, or know where I might find one?

I've been looking around for someone to have a 1923 but have been
unsuccessful.  If I could only have someone take a picture of one for
me, maybe I could copy it.  The plate is about 3" wide and 1-1/2" tall.
Email me and I'll be glad to email you a drawing of what the outline
looks like.  Please Help Me If You Can,

Thanks, Robert
