old piano hammers

[thart]

Dear List,                                                          
                                                                         
     I would like to find someone who has one or more original hammers 
from a Chickering 9 ft. concert grand c. 1865 that they might consider 
selling   OR   If anyone has any original hammers (of this type) on an 
action I could very much use a tracing of one or more hammers.           
      I want the original specs. of this instrument to be as close to 
original as possible.      Thanks.
