It was refurbished/refinished two years before she received it (she didn't know the extent). My elderly friend had the piano for 26 years. It tuned up very easily with a rich tone. The action is a little heavy and she has taken that to her shop to correct. New strings (if 20 years is new), soundboard intact, felts good, no insect activity, everything fits and does what it should. My piano technician says it is in remarkedly good shape.
I know it is not a "stickered" L&H, because it is engraved on the iron. L&H were considered top-tier in harps, and very well thought of in pianos, and didn't make too many after 1935, until recently it seems to have popped up again.
There are two interesting paper labels on the underside "For the Advancement of Music", National Association of Music Merchants and the second is "For the Advancement of Music" National Piano Manufacturers Association. What can anyone tell me about the Lyon and Healy baby grand? Serial Number is 32504- so it was made in 1920. I was given this piano by a elderly friend who is downsizing to assisted living.
