I imagine you read it on the internet, in amongst all the other fairy stories? 85 notes and two pedals was the usual arrangement in most brish and european pianos for a very long period, and 85 was still the usual in the sixties. I have no information ready on computer about these names, but I'll let you know if I find anything on card and paper files. See
