It's a former player piano with the player action removed. Hence, keysticks 19 7/8" long! Keys all individually weighted, with vaying numbers of weights, and none in the same place.  It was in a school building that closed and was to be thrown out, but got rescued, and although it could do with a lot of work, I am glad. It's massive and dominates the room, but it's a dilapidated aristocrat!  I never met a Schiedmeyer I didn't like!  The ivory key covers are pristine and beautiful.
