Piano cover?

I vaguely  remember seeing that someone (maybe Rhodes) made a cover to slip over the piano while not in use.  Does anyone have any info on these?  I'd like to keep my suitcase covered while in the studio to deter any visitors from having a go at it while I'm not there.  I've been using a moving blanket, but I don't think it is doing the trick.

Do you mean like a vinyl cloth cover that slips over it when the case is closed? They did make those. I don't know where you can get them though, I have a pair that goes with my suitcase piano. They have the Rhodes brand on them I think, I believe they may have come with them originally.
Rhodes Mk 1 Suitcase 73, Mini D, Roland SH-1, Ibanez AD230, Ludwig drums, Zildjian cymbals, and various other musical toys

Thanks!  That's pretty much what I'm looking for.  I didn't know the Rhodes slips didn't fit when the piano is assembled.

For anyone else who needs an original Rhodes cover for their piano (whilst it's disassembled so sorry dr carver) I believe ep-service.nl sell them but be warned they cost a bit.

bizarre !

It seems that both a "73" size and a "88" size were produced by CBS.
So I still don't understand why ep-service sell only one size.

Nice find tjh392...I may bid on that.  

Although I really need something to cover it up while assembled.  It pretty much lives in the studio, so I'm really just trying to deter the looky-loos from having a go at it while I'm not around.  I may just need to have someone stitch one up for me.
