Brass 'Art Deco' Ornaments for an Ampico Piano
By Mike Walter

Hi all, I received the picture attached from a friend who received the
actual articles. I offered to post the picture with his explanation.
Here goes --

> Mike, my attached photo shows two identical cast metal (brass-plated
> steel or iron -- a magnet sticks well to them) 'Art Deco' pieces that
> measure 3 inches by about 1 inch, each having 2 small screw mounting
> holes and one deep-welled about 5/16" dia hole. Total Height = 3.15"
> (inches). Total Width = 1.23". Depth or greatest thickness (near the
> center) = 0.84" The main hole (which might be drilled or turned into
> the casting) measures 0.348" diameter by about 0.957" deep.
>
> The person who gave them to me last week said they are from an Ampico
> A grand. Do you recognize what they might be? The backsides read
> 'Dovercraft 3400'. Thanks, Fred
