This example highlights the problems in relying upon published numbers: The number suggests 1892, yet the piano must be 1911 or later. See

The term "Upright Grand" is fairly meaningless, and since no definition exists, the only way to know if it is one is if it says so on the front! American makers tend to go for "Cabinet Grand".

I'm sorry, I got my wires crossed somehow, too many balls in the air!

34090 suggests 1923, 30238 suggests 1920.
