      Just ran across this.
      Harry F Slater was my grandfather.
      had a prominent business in Los Angeles, started in his home fabricating piano runners etc.
      Supplied major studios with textiles in the 1930-1940's period
      Let me know if you need additional details.

      Hi Stan,

      I have a runner made by your grandfather. It belonged to my childhood piano teacher who lived in Alameda, CA. The runner is plain, olive green, and has your grandfathers label sew on the back. I have used it for at least 30 years. It is in decent condition. If you would like it, let me know I am happy to send it to you.

      Hi Stan,

      I will mail it to you. No need for money it is an honor to give it back to your family. Do not know when Mrs. Stingle, my piano teacher, got it but her house was filled with organs, a grand piano, and so much sheet music there were only little trails in her house. I took lessons from her in the early 60’s. She died in the early 80’s and I was given some of her possessions.

      That is very kind of you
      It is likely from the 1940's as I think he got out of that trade about then...
      I look forward to seeing it!
      Again
      Thank you!
