Thanks for the pix of the wonderful ax Ed!
Its amazingly generous of you to take so many beautifully composed 
pictures to share.

But I searched and searched hoping for a moment with Mamie.

pianos
  Its about the age of the instrument. They quit using ivory even as 
veneer long ago and even the black keys are dyed maple on many of them.

   My portico is sporting a pair of piano legs. My son was renting a 
house and there was a piano in the shed, which had leaked badly and for 
years.
No way was that moldy rotting falling apart wreck ever coming back.

I wasn't able to salvage much. But I did get the legs and damned if they 
didn't come in handy hahaha.
