Hallet-Davis certainly did, and I would be happy to add my subscription 
for a set. Unfortunately I don't have samples with me -- the crumbling 
brackets are still in situ, as the customer's kids are still banging 
away at their lessons. Perhaps Jack Wyatt could weigh in  with some 
advice on which models had these. Possibly a phone call to Ed Schadler 
could provide some feedback as to how hot or cold a seller such an item 
might me.
