Stodart/Action

My last hope for finding a signature with a specific date has been lost.
The maker(s) of the keyframe, keyboard, and damper system did not see fit to follow the keyboard instrument makers tradition of affixing a signature and date to their work. 
We are left with nothing more than the maker's number, 7388, a faint signature of "H. Clark" in the keywell, and this stamped initial bearing the name "J. Young" on the treble end action bracket.
