<div>Here are a few pictures of the back of an iron-framed Brinsmead
from about 1878. Note the tie between the end of the long bridge
and the bass bridge. The view from the front shows the
cantilevering device for the soundboard, which pivots about half way
across the diagonal member whown in the picture of the back.</div>
