Moving a piano from the United States to Canada: Before doing this,
it is best to check out Canadian customs authorities, regarding the
problem of genuine ivory key tops.

There are strange laws prohibiting importing anything with genuine
ivory into Canada.  I heard of one case where a piano had to be
stripped of perfectly good ivory keys before it would be allowed
into Canada.
