A Baldwin grand piano that passed through the hands of two of the most influential artists of the 20th century, John Lennon and Andy Warhol, will go on auction in September at Alex Cooper Auctioneers (ACA) in Towson, Maryland, according to the Baltimore Banner.John Lennon bought the Concert Grand Model D piano in 1978 from the Baldwin Factory Store in New York City, according to ACA.
