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