Hello Alan & List
Yes, the Lindner Grands did look a bit like that - though without the =
decor! Tonally, if I remember right, they sounded a bit "thin". It could =
be they only used bi-cords.
Regards

  Does it look something like this?



  By the way Lindner also made straight strung uprights.
  What did the grand version sound like?

    Hello List and Richard of Cardiff - who said:
    The topic of Lindner pianos cropped up in the Pianotech list a short =
while ago.  Did you ever see the Lindner Grand?? It was a super =
modernistic design like a harpsichord on a central 'pillar' which also =
incorporated the pedals. It was, to my recollection, straight/oblique =
strung

    Yes that's the one. I do have one in my care, though I haven't =
touched it for a very long time - twenty years or so. It was memorable =
enough for me to exclaim when I first saw it "I didn't know they made =
grands!" It is just as you described. I have a small triangular William =
de Blaise Harpsichord which lives (minus legs) under my S&S "A". It is =
of the same shape and size as that Lindner grand. I cannot remember =
anything more pertinent to it though - what the action etc was like etc. =
though the keys, I think, were standard.=20
    Regards from a wind-blown sometimes sunny sometimes rainy Sussex =
Village
