James Curle, 52 Hanover St. Edinburgh
Semi Grand Cottage, Trichord Treble
 
Serial Number is 1999
 
Thanks so much!"

Matthew,
Hmmm? After that last "dig"??? Well, maybe<G>.
Its 1870ish. Sticker type Overdamper action. Lightly strung. Full of Coal
dust. POS. May/may not be tuneable w/the given information. Otherwise known
as the "Ghetto Blaster" of the 19th Century. Cheaply made, but makes piano
like sounds at times. What else do you need to know? Oh, Definately NOT an
instrument for children to take/practice lessons on!!
