Hi Tammy,
 
Here's a link to the website of John Broadwood & Sons in Kent, England.  
 
http://www.uk-piano.org/broadwood/
 
I hope that you'll be able to find a place for the grand piano, cracked 
soundboard and all.
 
Cheers,

Hi, everyone,

 

A local music teacher has a Broadwood grand piano, she believes dating 
from c. 1861, which she would like to offer to a museum.  It is burled 
walnut, marked John Broadwood and Sons, and, she says, looks great, but 
has a cracked soundboard (possibly reparable, but probably not cheap to 
do so).

 

Anyone interested in it?  Let me know, and I'll pass your contact 
information along!

 

Tammy
