Wow! Wasn't sure if you meant a duplex which has two keyboards on the one side or not, so checked the footage. Have only ever seen photos of the double sided grand piano ( such as that made by pleyel - Pleyel double Grand piano ) no idea what a double upright is called. Spiffy!


It's called a Nickelodeon. 🙂

Nope, sorry.    A Nickelodeon is an American term for what we call a Pianola.

 

A piano that is played by using perforated paper rolls on a metal rolling drum.
