    Hi, Ms Ann!

    Without knowing some specifics, it's difficult to say how much it might be worth monetarily.

    Do all of the notes play as well as the pedals all function as they should?

    Has it been tuned on a regular basis, like once or twice a year?

    When it's tuned can it hold to modern, standard pitch of A=440?

    Does it have a bench? And if so, does the bench match the style of the piano?

    Would you be able to post some images of it here?

    Just some of the questions that need to be answered.

    I can help you with this. I've been a piano tuner/technician since 1974 and also am a professional pianist. I restore and re-build pianos.

    I'm looking forward to your return to this thread!

    Thanks!

    Thanks!
