If I could remember the lessons I took back in grade school, I might have been able to tickle a tune out of this this miniature keyboard I spied on an East Village street the other night. There's a "Liberty" label on the top left corner of this musical marvel, but an exhaustive search turned up few clues regarding this unusual discovery.The piece was about four feet wide three feet high and had a lid that closed, making it perfect for a funky side table or night stand. You could also just leave it open, mount a lower shelf in the interior and make it a plant stand, since it had already been stripped of its musical guts.
What's more, you can see that it has a "free" sign posted on it, just in case you didn't know it was discarded by the big, black garbage bags it leans against.
Now, what would you do with this street find?
