Packie had one exactly like that! With the same triangular shape on top. We drove up to a little village* in (?) Suffolk or north Essex or somewhere, on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, where a lady in a posh old house full of gorgeous antiques was selling it. We bought it (ummmm... OK... Packie did the paying... I did the playing) and had it at Mapesbury Road for years. Thanks for the link - love the black-&-white kitty that walked away the minute the guy started playing! Ours was a bit sharp of concert pitch, but in tune with itself. *The church there had medieval graffiti on the inside walls from the time of the Black Plague, when the locals enclosed themselves there, as a voluntary quarantine to protect others. This thread is making me nostalgic. Wahhhhhhhhh... I miss everybody...
