There are problems with the earlier numbers published for Spencer, and although these suggest that 41254 is 1906, my estimate would put it nearer 1903. A. Shute is probably a worker at the factory.

Hi Bill,

I hope you can help with an approx date for my John Specer and Co piano. I've read a lot of info on your site but haven't found a list of serial numbers for these.
The serial number is 21379.
Here's a picture too:

The number suggests that it was made around 1893, but the photo is not clear enough to show any useful detail.

Thanks Bill.

I appreciate you looking up the serial number for me. It's lovely to have an idea of the longevity of my piano (112 years!). I can't help but wonder about all the people who've played it before me.

Thanks
