Wurlitzer Style 31 Concert PianOrchestra
Philipps Pianella Model 31
(Old Louvre Cafe, San Francisco, California, Date: 1909)

This early Wurlitzer Concert PianOrchestra with all white casework, embellished with polished brass strappings and gilded carvings, is probably a style 31. Note the "Fancy Lamp" encircled by a gilded wreath at the top center of the facade. A marginally visible standing figurine, silhouetted against a spray of exquisitely shaped metal flowers fitted with two electric light bulbs, can be seen in the orchestrion's center niche.
