  Conrad, if it was Scotland, it was Edinburgh. Pronounced like you spelled it.

    It's a typical down-striking grand.  And, yes, the action does look a lot like a "birdcage".  I'll look for the original slide and rescan it larger, if you wish.  This one was in the basement storage at EUCHMI - Edinborough

    What kind of piano is that??  Like a vertical birdcage of sorts.  Are those the hammers above the strings?  Very strange.  My computer only gave me a really small pic. 

    I don't think I want one, though <G> 
    thanks for sharing!

    I like this one; a table piano.
