MY 8' 2" CHICKERING CONCERT GRAND MUST GO. GORGEOUS ORIGINAL CASE UNDAMAGED NOT NEEDING COSMETIC RESTORATION TO ANY LARGE EXTENT. IT HAS ORNATE CARVING AND SPECTACULAR PANELS AROUND ENTIRE PERIMETER OF CASE. RESTORATION OF FELTS ,PINS STRINGS,AND SHIMMING OF SOUNDBOARD EVIDENT IN MORE RECENT YEARS. I DONOT KNOW WHERE TO FIND SER, # ON THIS ONE. IT IS LATE 1800'S. PERHAPS SOMEONE COULD HELP ME ON THAT. I DID NOTICE THAT PINBLOCK WAS REPLACED. IT HOLDS PINS IN PLACE WELL, BUT WAS EITHER INSTALLED IN 2 PIECES OR HAS A CRACK. I AM A NOVICE SO THAT IS ALL I CAN HELP WITH IN THAT RESPECT. ACTION SEEMS GOOD FOR AN OLD PIANO WITH KEY HIEGHT EQUAL, AND PLAYABILITY OKAY. WILL NEED TUNING. YOU PIANO AFFICIANADOS KNOW THAT DURING THIS PERIOD CHICKERING BUILT THE FINEST PIANOS IN THE WORLD AND WON BEST GRAND IN WORLD AT 1868 PARIS EXPOSITION .
