Toy piano repair

This is a cute little Schoenhut toy piano from the 1890's or so. The Schoenhut company made piano's from the 1870's to the present day.
This style of piano works with a xylophone type mechanism.
This particular piano was fully operational before it got mailed.
It was not properly wrapped for shipping and the postal system was not gentle to it's box.

The innards flapped around during shipping and were in quite the state on arrival.

One chime had lost its nail and was askew.
One hammer had torn from its mount. Several other hammers had partially torn.

With a few nails gently pulled out, the whole glockenspiel type mechanism can be removed for repairs.

The hammers are simply made with pieces of cardboard covered with cloth and stapled to the underside  of the chime board. The hinges then are just cloth. Wooden knobs are glued to the one side of each flapper to strike the chimes.

 Here is the detached hammer. The top cloth tab had ripped off at the hinge area.

 Here is the hammer repaired. I have used an antique cotton of a similar weave to recreate the top tab.

Many other hammers have partially ripped at the hinge area so I will replace all the damaged hinges in the same way.

Here all of the damaged hammers have been replaced.
The hammer on the right was not damaged but it had an old repair where someone replaced the wooden knob with a square chunk of wood and then glued the tab back instead of stapling it.
I might as well revise this before I put the piano back together.

Here is the previously repaired hammer. It worked but doesn't look like the original.

Here it is with a knob carved from a vintage wooded clothes peg and a rebuilt cloth tab.

Success!
All the hammers have been repaired.

While I was at the repairs to the hammers, I decided the torn harp and leaf logo should be repaired too.

And then, why not replace the cloth inserts on either side? The piano arrived with bright red synthetic cloth inserts. Those were not original.

So they got replaced with antique velvet inserts. A bit more suited to the age of the piano.....
