Steinway D 1923....

[Horace Greeley]

Pascal,

For S&S, this type of attachment is generally found only on Hamburgs.  It 
also appears on some other European instruments.  If yours is a New York, 
it might have been specially fitted with this system if it was going to be 
moved around much.  It looks to be original, so I suspect that this might 
be the case.

Best regards.

Horace
