<font face="Arial">We've had quite a bit of discussion on here in
recent times about pianos with Birdcage actions. We've spoken
about the difference between magnificent old Bluthner and Ibach
birdcage pianos, and budget-level 1880s English spring & loop
birdcage pianos. We also discussed the fact that Birdcage pianos
continued to be made in England until some time in the 1930s.<br>

Recently I was able to take sdome pictures of one of these
latter-day English birdcage pianos, to incorporate in the page of
my website that deals with this topic (

Just for interest's sake, I am attaching a couple of the pics
here.<br>
