A rarity is this Ibach grand piano (1.95 m), completed on January 23, 1915, which was patented as the Prof. Dr. Felix v. Kraus transposing grand (D.R.P. 202532) and, with license number 40, is probably one of the very few grand pianos of this kind preserved in such original condition. This grand piano has a transposing lever with which the keyboard can be shifted between G# (−4) and D# (+3). Instead of 85, this grand piano has 95 string choirs. The magnificent case with its double legs is also beautifully preserved.
