It was exposed to the elements in a brick shelter supported by brick columns on all four corners and open on all four sides. The piano was donated by a couple who live in a house right around the corner. I six hours a day, two days a week repairing the action and broken wood parts inside the piano. Weeks later I received a call from the lady who donated the piano. She said the city officials in charge of Sutton Loop Park wanted to know if the antique upright piano is worth further repairs or should they have it hauled away and replaced with a piano in better condition that someone wants to donate. I said haul the piano away and dispose of it. All my work is not enough to significantly improve its condition. It was made around 1933 and would not last long without a fleece lined canvas cover. There are also electric heating rods I can install inside the bottom. I'm not going to pay for the heating rods, but the next piano should be equipped with the piano heaters for cold weather. It would be a worthwhile investment for preserving the instrument and I have experience installing dehumidifier rods inside the bottom of upright pianos and under the soundboard of grands. They're designed to be easily fit for the size of the piano. The mounting brackets are adjustable as needed. They have an on/off switch built into the power cord so they don't stay on all the time."
