  These are keys from a piano that was recently "traded-in" and=20
  promptly hauled to the dump.  It obviously took many years=20
  of playing to wear down the sharps and wear holes this deeply=20
  into the natural keys.  It is very likely that the person who=20
  played this piano wore "porcelain" glue-on fingernail covers=20
  which are truly "hard-as-nails" and very abrasive to ANY type=20
  of keyboard covering.  One-or-two glissandos across the keys=20
  with "porcelain" nail covers can hopelessly scratch new keys.=20
  If you look at the picture you can actually see grooves in the=20
  wood which are the same shape as the fingernails.=20
