This is an exceptional instrument, a C. Tormin upright piano with Welte red installation, sold by Pianohaus W. Olbrich (Glatz). It has a switch so that Welte red and Welte Pianon rolls can be played. We know of no other piano of this type. This piano is in good condition, but needs a complete restoration to play well again.
