Re: Keller and Sons Reproducing Piano
By Dave Fowler

Well all,

I've got more (but not much more) information about that Keller & Sons reproducing piano. I went out to see it today (although I had to change quite a number of appointments) and saw a gutted piano with no name on the fall board, no name on the plate, no reference of any kind in the way of a serial number in its usual place... you know, a John Doe.

As far as the player is concerned, there is no drawer... but, interestingly, there are push rods (independent of the stack) sticking through the underside of the keybed, only the bottom half of the standard pedal lyre (the top half is all cast trap work for mechanical pedaling, and that's about it. Any ideas????

Thanks for you input, Dave Fowler (kiigoretrt@aol.com)
