Seek 1920s Chickering Music Desk Hinge
By Bob Taylor

I need to find the hinges for a Chickering grand music desk.  They
had several styles over the years; the style I need comes from the
1924-1930 era.  Screws hold the hinge on each side edge of the music
desk.  The hinge is a simple plate with a rod that inserts into
a hole on the stationary part of the desk.

Over the years I've restored many of these Chickering pianos, but
now is the first time I've got one with the hinges missing.  I'd like
to borrow for duplication or purchase a set from someone.  I could
probably make a set from my memory, but I'd rather see the real thing.
Help!
