Marshall and Wendell Upright Piano (1891)
The Marshall & Wendell Piano Company built exceptionally well-made instruments. Here is some text from a website about The Marshall & Wendell Piano Company. MARSHALL & WENDELL PIANO COMPANY HISTORY. The Marshall & Wendell Piano Company was originally established as Marshall & Traver in Albany, NY in 1836. Marshall & Traver was a retailer of pianos, organs and related musical instruments. Marshall & Traver began building instruments under their own name in 1853. Their factory was located on James Street, Albany. James was admitted into partnership and the firm was reorganized as Marshall, James, and Traver. In 1868 James & Traver withdrew from the firm and Mr. Wendell was admitted into partnership. The firm was once again reorganized as Marshall & Wendell. In 1882, the firm was officially incorporated as The Marshall & Wendell Piano Company. During the late 19th Century, Marshall & Wendell built several lines of square, grand, and upright pianos, all of superior quality. The firm also manufactured upright pianos under the names of Little Gem and Boudoir Gem and square grand pianos under the name of Parlor Gem. In 1900 the firm moved headquarters from Albany to Rochester, New York and continued rapid growth and success. After the turn-of-the-century, Marshall & Wendell instruments continued to be considered to be made of superior quality and fine craftsmanship. Their small grand pianos were particularly popular because of their exceptional design and tone quality. Marshall & Wendell specialized in building elaborate art-case pianos in historic and period design styles. Many of these pianos were equipped with the AMPICO reproducing player mechanism, allowing the piano to play by itself with expression with human interpretation. Marshall & Wendell retained their own art department of skilled painters and carvers who specialized in building custom-designed instruments on special order. In the early 20th Century, it was not uncommon for a wealthy client to visit the Marshall & Wendell, choose the instrument they preferred among all others, then have the factory commission their art department build a custom cabinet around the instrument they chose. Once a piano was chosen for its tone quality, a small fortune was then spent to have the cabinet custom made to suit the clients décor! Many of these custom-built Marshall & Wendell pianos were incredibly expensive to produce and were remarkable works of art. Like most major American piano manufactures, Marshall & Wendell was absorbed into the Aeolian-American Corporation due to the Great Depression. Aeolian continued to produce the Marshall & Wendell brand name until the 1950s. The Serial Number is 14191 which puts it as produced in 1891. If restored, this piano would have substantial value. O00 once fully restored. My grandmother bought this piano for her daughters back in the 1940s. I’d like to see it go to someone who will restore the piano. It will need some work, but one like it is featured in a Kari Jobe video online. Quarter sawn oak and is of the carved Victorian style which makes it collectible for folk with older homes from the period.

1941 Steinway model P upright vertical Hepplewhite Pianino 45 inch Studio
1941 Steinway model P. Serial # P 310316. Steinway Model P Walnut case. Origional single family owned. Sure it has wear on it, but I feel that at this price, you will be hard pressed to find any sort of Steinway in playable condition anywhere near this price. Yes it has wear, yes the ends of the keys are chipped, but very playable. Yes Grandma used this to hold vases for years so there are water spots on the walnut in a few places. And yes it is dusty. But the good thing is that no one has butchered it in any way that I can see. This was bought new at Lyon Healy in Chicago by the family’s grandfather right after the war (must have sat on the showroom floor through the war) According to family folklore, the last time that this was tuned was around 1990 by some old timer with a tuning fork – pre digital days, and this was only done because the piano was moved to another home. After the grandparents passed, the piano was moved to a grandson’s home and essentially used only for a plant stand. You can see a few cobwebs on the tuning pegs in the last photo. Cannot make that up. I have looked the soundboard over and have found zero evidence of cracks. Had a piano repair guy look it over also and he had the same conclusion, no cracks in the soundboards. It’s a Steinway, of course the sound is fantastic! I called Steinway and this is what they found in the records. Lyon Healy is a famous Chicago Harp maker that was THE Steinway store in Chicago for a long, long time. Lyon Healy is not affiliated with Steinway any more. This piano is seriously getting close to one of the final pianos made before the war shut Stienway production down. (The government had Steinway make caskets and gun stock parts before finally relenting and letting them make a few hundred “Victory Pianos” for the troops). Steinway calls this a Model P. Used piano dealers now call it an Art Deco model, a Pianino, a Hepplewhite – because of the detailed carving on the front legs. Some refer to this as a Studio. Others a 45 because it is 45 inches tall. Stop by and play it. I’m in the exact center of the City of Chicago 60609. This weighs around 500 lbs or so. I’ll gladly get a few guys together to load it onto anything that shows up. I have this now located in a climate controlled warehouse facility that can handle any sort of vehicle. I moved it with a small UHaul truck that had a ramp. Two of us easily put it onto dollys and pushed it into a small box truck. Fairly simple to move compared to a grand piano.
