I like the lawn one; there is a local store that had a frame outside their store for years on a fairly main street. As the years passed, and they took less care of the looks, I'm not sure it was such good advertising...

Have you ever seen the inside of a straight-strung piano?

I have one similar to that, but piano color, not gold, stamped "Made in Occupied Japan".

I'll have to find it and take a picture for this thread.

A blue piano was easy to find. I had trouble coming up with a yellow one today.
