Dang. I could start hacking up landfill pianos and make a mint! I could even offer you your choice of notes. (Before you pounce, yes, I know why you'd really only get a few useful models from each actual piano.)

That may well be true, but in this instance, the credit goes to the photographer, whose name and link escapes me at the moment. (I really should have credited it in the first place.) My talent for desolation is closely related to playing.   But I'm also a Pollyanna. I found myself thinking, "It might be fixable". I've seen its equal advertised with the ubiquitous, "It probably needs tuning". One of the very first pianos I looked at when I made up my mind to buy a grand required miles of driving, only to find what might have formerly been a nice Baldwin R sitting at a 45 degree angle, minus one leg that no one could find. The owner was quite anxious to part with it and promised he could deliver it within the hour if I'd buy it. Even so, it wasn't one of the two I bought that day.
