Shouldn't be too hard. This is a real airplane, if an unusual one- not a flying (or non-flying) bedstead.

Looks like a Siemens-Shuckert before they dumped Shuckert and started making phones.

Cursed be me - I KNOW I've seen it before (well, photographs at least) but no longer remember where.

It has Klemm / ERLA lines, and I lean towards it being an ERLA..

An "A" for effort, so far, everybody... here's a hint: The mfr. name starts with a "D".

I didn't think think so. I checked google after I guessed, it's a bit similar though.

Since this one's been sitting so long and everyone's reduced to blind guessing, I'll reveal its identity:
It's a Darmstadt D-22. I don't know much at all about it, and internet searches have yielded nothing in English, so I can't find more info.
Suffice it to say that it's old, it's odd but nice-looking, and the mfr. is not exactly a household word... Grin
