Joseph Collard

Post by Gill the Piano »

Tuned a piano yesterday made by 'Joseph Collard, of Collard and Collard'. No address, and looks as though he was a baby Collard who broke away from the family. The piano was a nondescript small straight strung overdamper, looked to be about 1890/1900. Do you have any dates for where/when he was operating please, Bill?
I play for my own amazement... :piano;

Interesting Gill, but I haven't come across him at all. I'll have a look at card and paper files for that period.
