George P. Bent "Crown" Player Piano Pedals
By Michael Watkin

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I was wondering if anybody could help me.  I have a 1912 George P. Bent
"Crown" player piano which has four pedals.  The fourth pedal, which
moves a wooden bar in front of the hammer shanks and the linkage
connected to this bar, is missing.

Is it possible that someone has a picture of how the bar and linkages
are connected to the piano action, or blueprints/manual for the design
of this mechanism so that I can rebuild it?  Any help would be
appreciated.
