The Pierce Piano Atlas provides a fantastic source of information about manufacturers and the dates pianos were built. Our web site, PianoWorld.com is dedicated to providing information about pianos. We often refer to this book to find the answers our visitors are looking for. Although there are other books that provide this type of information, none seem as complete as the Pierce Atlas.

I had a very old edition of this Piano Atlas from about 30 years ago. While the information of serial numbers and manufacter dates have not been updated, as far as I can see. Anyone dealing with pianos, such as tuners and resellers, will find this a good reference book for determining the age of an older piano.
