Interesting. The boomerang shaped bass bridge is in much better condition than the last one I saw ...

LIst,
   Something you don't see everyday.
     Images from a Mehlin  5'2" grand piano # 43936 C.1935
   
    Sweeping cutoff in Bass ,floating board behind the very long cantilevered bass bridge.3 1/2" backscale length.
Ribs are 1" tall at the rim and taper to 1/4" in the middle. Rib width 1 1/8" .
    No agraffes
    Piano is in fair condition  but still has better tone than one would expect for it's age-condition and tunes well.
