steinway keys

[richard.ucci at att.net]

Hi folks,
I'm working on a Steinway grand ca:1911.
The keyfronts are pulling away from the top, sort of curving out towards the front like this (.
They also seem to be comprised of a 1-2 mm separate piece of wood glued to the keystick with the front glued to it.

Should I pull all of them off and just go with new keyfronts ? The fronts seem to be ivory, but are cracking.

Thanks,
Rick Ucci/Ucci Piano
