Black or wood grain?
Fluted legs or fat round legs or spade feet?
Oh, what the heck, I'll come pick it up, sight unseen.

I tune a 1903 O that's in pretty fair shape. The owner has a photo of the
original owner sitting at and playing the shiny, brand-new piano. It is a
very sharp and clear photo of a lovely young woman in a high-collared, white
(or very light colored) Victorian dress. What a treasure to have with your
Steinway. She also has a program from an organ concert at the 1904 World's
Fair  and a general pamphlet about the fair that all came with the piano
when she bought it--over 60 years ago!

I'd trade a 1953 PA Stark spinet I tuned once (shudder ... ) for either of
these Steinways even if they might need a little work. Ha.
