[David Love]

Thanks Bob.  I was thinking that I should have posted it as the puzzler for
the month.

What do the numbers that are embossed at the top of the treble bridge mean
on these pianos.  They are not the serial numbers.  But can they be cross
referenced to a serial number if the actual serial number is not findable?
Or have I not looked in the secret place.  

David,

 

I didn't see any other answers to this, so I'll take a shot. I only service
a few of these, and the serial #s are pressure stamped (colorlessly) into
the soundboard, either right behind the damper guide rail, or along the
spine behind the damper guide rail. They're hard to find if there's any
dust. I don't know about the number on the bridge; I always assumed it was a
temporary factory sequence number, like the one in the treble corner of a
Steinway plate.
