Some are clever, some are colorful, some are funny, some are sensitive. Each is excellent in its own way; but only Glaser had the audacity to turn the piano over to achieve this bold, flat design. It takes a lot of design muscle to lift a piano.
I love this immense paw, laid down wet.
Glaser was first and foremost a designer, and over a long, long career he kept flipping pianos upside down. Gotta admire that.
