They're beautiful. Where do you get them?

The last picture is one that I found on ebay a couple months back that came out of a methodist church closet in eastern texas.   The four that share the same room for now came from a school surplus auction from a small community college in way upstate new york.   I had came across both at the same time and didnt expect to get all of them (well minus one - the college had a total of five.)  Have only had a couple days to inspect condition of the new four but will update you as to there condition when i get a handle on it.  
As for my plans on selling... still unsure.  They definitely are beasts to ship. It also kind of feels like breaking up a family with the four that came together (LOL).

ended up with five of these - all in working condition except one with two sticky keys.

Ok... any help would be appreciated.

I posted this pic of my "new" student model on the other thread but here it is again.

The serial number is SP 8149.

other markings - pat number 3.285.116

then my best guess at the date stamp 1069 (October 69)

There are also two stamps with numbers in a circle one being 33 and the other being 23.

Handwritten in sharpie or black permanent marker is #63 and on the back  written on the wood is a 70 circled followed by 2" rai (cut off) then another code 05-4-91-01.

Any code breakers?  I will try and get pics.
