Hagspiel 2704 or 12703

Post by Hawkwind »

I have aquired the above piano, unfortunately in terrible condition, lid like a banana, all badly painted in white household paint, many marks and bashed corners, but plays very nicely. Does anyone know how I might find out about its history. I can find no special markings other than the name and in seperate places a number (as indicated). It has a coat of arms, but there is no date indicated.

A little further down the page you will find another posting about Hagspiel. No original archives are available to trace individual pianos. Dates of serial numbers are not available, are there any exhibition medals listed on the piano? Hagspiel won lots of medals, and their dates can help, by telling us which ones are missing.

Yeh mate,

I feel your frustration.

Got a Hagspiel too and no idea of where it came from.
