---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I worked on one of these a long time ago. It was in about the same shape as you described and I opted not to try and get inside due to lack of customer budget. These weren't much of a piano, I think just the old typical spinet like a million others Wurlitzer made. The case however was exceptionally unique and I'm sure very few of these were made. If your customer ever decides to unload it cheep/free and you have the room it might make a nice collector piece if you can afford to store it for another 25 years. I would be willing to bet there is less than 100 of them still in existence. Rob Goodale, RPT Las Vegas, NV Z!
