Many thanks to those who have tried to help me get to know my player
piano.  John Tuttle has ID'ed it as a 1926-'27 Chase-Hackley with a few
twists.  It appears that my piano was made after the company was bought
out by another and the old pieces laying around in stock were combined
so as to use them up.  This does not diminish the quality however as we
have determined that it is in very good condition.  The pitch is
currently 20 cents off from perfect and I think that will do for now.
I will see if it keeps the tune or not as time goes by.  My children
and I look forward to a good many years of fun with it.  To those who
have had their email returned when they tried to send it to me, I have
no idea what went wrong.  I have been getting email all week and all
weekend so all I can think of is that my provider (Flashnet) has had
some problems.

To Jody Kravitz; you had asked how I had heard about your digest... I
don't remember where I got it from exactly (it was some late night
surfing) but I think it was from a search on Yahoo. Thanks again.
