Congratulations, Frank, on an important milestone! PW has got to be one of the most successful theme-based forums of all time. thumb

Now all I have to do is think of a way to ensure that the one millionth post gets posted in the "1" thread... laugh

Would that stencil be the world famous Steinaha, Changgraeber, & Sohns?

My sources tell me that the sons have fled and are now producing the Bachstein, Cabelevski, Rachmanninriver, and Petrokioff.

Will they be in the new edition of the Piano Bruch Seilerment?

I think anyone with over 5000 posts should be paid for their support.
