I have an Upright Grand Piano that's from 1914. My Dad came accross it in a flood claim back in the 80's. He took it get some restoration work done and the Piano guy convinced him to spend a few dollars on it thinking it was a Decker Brothers New York as opposed to Decker Brothers Chicago Piano. So the restoration project was stopped part way thru when it was realized that this wasn't the good Decker Brothers Piano.
My Mom still has a Gramaphone that's from the early part of the 1900's. My Grandfather bought it second hand in 1925, and I remember them giving it to us in like 1987 because we had to drive from East of Regina to Cranbrook with 3 of us in the front seat of our small 86 Buick Lesabre. It still has a few of those old records that came with it. So one day I'll put my claim on that to keep as it's almost been in the family for 100 years now.
