Gallery of Art Case Pianos
By Terry Smythe
Since first getting onto the 'Net some 2 years ago, I've been quite unsuccessful in finding a web site containing illustrations of art case grand pianos. In hopes that some might find it useful, I went through 30 years of colour photographs of private collections I've visited over the years and extracted a selection of interesting photos of art case reproducing grand pianos. I've assembled them into a Gallery off my home page. For obvious reasons, owners and locations have not been identified.

Have a look, and let me know your thoughts and reactions. The Gallery is unavoidably graphics intensive, so what is initially displayed are tiny "thumbnail" illustrations, just enough to give some kind of idea of what's behind it. Click on the tiny picture and the full size picture will be transferred.
These are not professional quality graphics. They are just a simple scan of ordinary colour photos. At very least, it is a beginning at what I hope will turn up others elsewhere, perhaps of better quality. If anyone knows of other such displays, I surely would appreciate hearing about them.
Regards,
Terry
