	The older ones are fascinating. 962393 is from 1910, a pair of  
mushroom shaped (slender stem, weight is extended away from the board)  
weights placed one on each bridge. 444261, from 1892, has weights  
placed away from the bridge on the back of the soundboard  (in both  
cases uprights are intended). In neither case is mass specified.
