The 1893 Julius Bauer

[Farrell]

I also service one of these pianos - exactly like Dale's. Same crown along 
the belly rail, etc. Even though Dale's picture of the plate makes it clear 
that it is massive, it gets even more massive when you get up close and 
personal with it. Very impressive piano. No killer octave in the one I 
service. Nice tone.
