Description

There are a few keys that get stuck and out of tune and a good bit of discoloration. There is one key that is chipped on the edge. No strings are broken and the pedals still work fine. The following pictures are of the company logo, badge, numbers, and signatures. The signatures are to the right of the badge.

Distinguishing marks
Singature that looks something like J. N. Mentiovitte, but it's hard to read..the signature is dated 12/9/65, it also says he raised them a half-step, so he tuned them..there is also one other signature or writing, but it isillegible to me. Also the number 33644 and a badge saying Made in the U.S.A.

The company was established 1882, and was tuned in 1965, so somewhere between there.
