Hi, I have an old upright piano....the label reads Chas.Brinnie Improved Trichord No.9703. It also has a label... Camden Town Piano & Organ Depot. 76, High Street, Camden Town N.W... established 1875. I cannot find any info on either....Any ideas.
Thanks M

The vast majority of piano names are not listed on the internet. We have no record of Brinnie until 1892-1911, and he was gone by 1914. For general help, see pianogen.org

I haven't found any reference in our files to the Camden Piano & Organ Depot, so I can only guess that this may have been a name used by Brinnie.

Re: Chas. Brinnie
hi guys...
I was doing a search for chas brinnie (I too have an upright with the name plate on the back board mentioning chas brinnie, camden town) and this came up.
I know it's quite a while ago, but, to the original poster..if you were looking for spare parts...and assuming your model is the same as mine, I'm dismantling an upright piano at the moment.
cheers

Hello,
I'm a recent french owner of a chas. Brinnie from Camden upright piano (SN : 44506)
A sticker of Gehrling is put on the mecanism. (so fab date is between 1909 and 1914)
I'm interessed by your old spares parts.
Could you send me some photos of your piano , thx.

How did you arrive at the date range 1909-1914? Gehrling was supplying actions to London piano firms for many years, at least up to the 1914 war. His label may mention exhibition w=awards or medals, and the action will have been made after the last date shown, but any details you can tell me may help.
