How old is Howard Piano number 76963?
The age of this instrument depends on which 'Howard' piano company you are referring to. For the more 'modern' Howard Piano Co. pianos built by Baldwin, serial number 76963 would indicate an instrument built between 1960 and 1965. If it is a vintage Howard R.S., however, this serial number would indicate one of the last pianos built by the company between 1930 and 1932.

History[edit]
Howard Miller Clock Company was founded in 1926, as the Herman Miller Clock Company division of office furniture manufacturer Herman Miller, specializing in chiming wall and mantle clocks.[1] It was spun off in 1937 and renamed, under the leadership of Herman Miller's son Howard C. Miller (1905–1995).[2] Today, there is no connection between the two companies although their headquarters are across the street from one another.
Starting in 1947, the Howard Miller Clock Company produced scores of modern wall clocks and table clocks designed by George Nelson Associates. (At that time, Nelson was Director of Design at Herman Miller Furniture Company.) They also produced Nelson's 'Bubble Lighting' through the late 1970s, selling the business in the early 1980s. (Using the original manufacturing equipment developed by Nelson Associates with Howard Miller, the California furniture company Modernica reintroduced the Bubble Lamps in the 1990s and has been the exclusive manufacturer and worldwide distributor of the lamps since that time). Howard Miller Clock Company also produced other Nelson Associates products; spice cabinets, pull-down wall mounted vanities and desks, a vertical hanging vinyl strip system called 'Ribbon Wall' (which was available in many different variations from 12 inches to 84' wide and 12' to 144' high), a complete line of fireplace tools, and other hanging lighting (Metalites, Net Lights, Bubbles, and Lanterns)
A number of Nelson's clocks became icons of the era; the Ball, Spike, Block, Spindle, and others were good sellers and have been reissued by Vitra, as well as most of the Zoo Timers clocks, and a select group of table models.[citation needed]
In the 1960s, a line of ceramic wall clocks called 'Meridian' was produced using ceramic wall plates designed in Italy and using the Nelson clock hands. This line, as well as the other Nelson clocks and other pieces, was distributed by Richards Morganthau, Inc. (also known as Raymor).
One of the last series of modern clocks were the 'Swing Timers', a group of at least 18 inexpensive all plastic clocks produced in the late 1960s and designed by Arthur Umanoff Associates. Umanoff also designed Plexiglas floor and wall clocks, a series of wood clocks called 'Natural Classics', and 'Day Timers' (plastic wall clocks with day and dates). Nathan George Horwitt designed the 'Museum Clock' in the 1970' (both wall and table model). The final George Nelson Associates series of clocks were the 1984 post-modern 'Tempo '21 Series'.
The modern Nelson and Umanoff clocks were discontinued and these days, the company has little to no interest in that period of modern design.[citation needed]
Originally the company only made mantel clocks. Grandfather clocks did not become a part of the product line until the 1960s.
The company began making curio cabinets in 1989.
The company acquired the Ridgeway,[3]Hekman and Woodmark companies.
The company began marketing and selling wine and spirits furniture in 2004 thanks to Robert S. LeHocky, former Vice President of Sales and Marketing, who is the executive vice president due to Phil Miller's retirement in 2008.
The company launched a line of Home Storage Solutions[buzzword] partnering with celebrity Ty Pennington in 2008.The company launched a line of furniture partnering with Pennington in 2009.
