<grin> It's a Steinway Model P. I tuned one today, made in 1953. It had a brass medallion celebrating Steinway's 100th anniversary. It is in excellent condition, since it was not heavily used and it seems to have come to the west coast while it was quite new.
Last year I fixed up one, heavily worn and affected by the climate of Houston, Texas. I believe I remember it being made in 1939. I was very excited by it, since I'd never seen a Steinway with a case anything like this. I took a bunch of photos.

Subject: Old Steinway upright model question
Had the opportunity to service this beautiful Steinway upright this morning. Purchased new in 1949 by grandma, inherited by mom and now in the home of eldest daughter. Canadian. Mom, who still lives in Canada, had it restored last year by a guy in Guelph, Ontario. A+ job. Now homed in Los Angeles. Today's question: What model is it?
Yes I have more pics if desired.
