W.A. Adam

In 1914, William Allan Adam, Piano and musical instrument dealer, was listed in The Cabinet Maker Jan. 31 in connection with legal proceedings. I'll see what else I can find. "Mandamia Regd." means the name was registered as a trade mark, and these were sometimes a sign of pianos made by Murdoch. It almost looks like an anagram of something to do with Adam.
