Art-Deco styled Wurlitzer Butterfly Baby Grand built in 1938
Just a repost with a few more angles and interesting technical info






Notice the adjustment screw on the bridge between the first two tenor bass strings in the first two pictures on the far left. This screw adjusts pressure on a floating bar that is attached to the soundboard of the piano between the rim and a center point on the soundboard. As the note is played, pressure can be increased or decreased on this bar by turning the screw to achieve optimal tonal output. This is a brilliant design for such a small piano!

Chris Gilmour produces incredibly detailed replicas of real life objects using only cardboard, a cutter and glue.

It wouldn't hurt too much if you fall on this piano.

See this and many other amazing objects created the same way: http://laconchadetuhermana.tar...ras-Acartonadas.html

Martha Cook Building Grand Piano

A bust of Mr. Cook rests above the Angell fireplace, and Mr. Cook's own Steinway piano attracts the eye as well as the ear. It was specially commissioned in 1913 and given to the building after the donor's death. It has an inlaid case of Caucasian walnut with Italian Renaissance designs. A piano of this style, as well as most of the furnishings on the first floor, cannot be replaced today.
