Was it common in the 1920’s for baby grand pianos to have ivory coated wood keys?
Filed under: baby grand pianos

And are they worth anything now? Even if the piano isn’t in great condition?

Yes, why the poor elephants were viciously hunted down.

    Yes it was common, plastics did not become widely-used replacements until 1950s.

    They are probably worth something to someone – please note that it is not possible to sell ivory using ebay and some other auction sites (they have banned any trade in ivory).
