Enrico Caruso.

(And I knew that without looking at the picture names. His recording of "O Sole Mio" on the old Edison cylindrical format is still my favorite, though Pavorotti comes close.)

Wow, does he look (in that picture) like Ernest Borgnine or what?

Bingo!!!!!

Geeeeek alert! - I knew someone would finally figure the picture names out - I was just too lazy to dump them over to image shack first.

Here's one I stumbled across - a Baldwin:

Pretty cool! Can you tell I like gaudy pianos? (and gaudy things in general?)

Boy, Ron, I think you've found a match. I wonder how long you guys can keep this up.

Would this qualify as a Giraffe?:

Thanks Zorba for adding to this growing mass of pictures here! Giraffe, or hybrid.... yup!

Ron

You're welcome!

I really like this one - I'd like it even better if it were a different color (blue doesn't do it for me), but I'd take it as is anyway! When can I expect my complimentary delivery?

I can't believe you guys can keep this thread going.

Your piano may be ordinary, but it's very, very handsome.

Psst, Zorba, there's a secret message for you over in the Off Key thread.

When you're not playing this one, you can store veils in it:
