Hello Laura,
 
     It was called  " Coffin Corner"   Chickering used this style 
more than anyone else.   Their   Scale 109  A-B-C  were very 
popular.  Later they left this style, rounded off the corner and
changed the scale number the  116. These pianos were very
large and wide.
 
   Both the Fisher and Steck built similar  styles to this  Knabe.
 Most were players but not all.
 
   Jack

So, was  this called a "coffin tail"?

I' guessing I shouldn't to this to A440.  Can't find a serial number...yet. 
Art case 304 written on the plate.
