For a period of time, Jupiter's parent company KHS manufactured curved sopranos and provided some as stencils for Vito. Do any of you have examples of these KHS curved sopranos?

KHS did curved sopranos? I doubt it.

Perhaps you are mistaking the Vitos made by Yanagisawa. They did both curved and straight for Vito only much later some Vitos were made by KHS (not curved sopranos) and were marker Made in Taiwan while the Yanagisawa are made in Japan.

I'm wondering based on a May 2013 Kim Slava post: http://www.doctorsax.biz/2013/Vito_Models.htm

I have the outmost respect for the data collected by Kim Slava but I really wonder whether this is correct

After doing more research, it looks like Antigua probably made some of the post VSP (Yanagisawa) curved sopranos for Vito.
