It was a Mason & Hamlin upright that Chris flung with his trebuchet in the
Northern Exposure episode called "Burning Down The House". In a later episode
Ruth-Ann says it was a Baldwin, but Maggie (the owner of the piano) clearly
states it was an M&H in that episode.

I have a photo of the piano in the air (nx20.jpg) from the episode you can
download on http://www.musselwhite.com/pub/piano   if you're interested in
seeing it.
