It is either a Howard or a model M Baldwin. any markings on the Harp?

Here is mine...completely rebuilt it 3 years ago. 1923 Howard.

The biggest problems are:
- sound board cracked - you will hear a buzzing sound when certain keys are played.
-Pins loose and tuner can not tune to correct pitch. When he/she tunes it you will know this.
- Felts have become hard. Can all be replaced. Let me know if you need advice on this, I did my complete action with the supervision of a Master Technician.

Regards,
