Looks like it could be a mini-fort. The more modern idea was do design things so they were streamlined and look as if they could fly. This is the opposite.

I love your sign-off life, Jamie. It's very moving.

That cottage organ brought back some memories - I used to play one of those (not M&H) when I was a kid. I think it taught me legato actually. The stops always fascinated me: vox humanum, diapason, celesta are ones I particularly remember.

RF, I think a photo of my piano is in the dictionary next to "Mission style".
