Steinway estimate?

[Farrell]

Good piano. Good scale. Presumably it needs refinishing and a thorough
restoration (but good veneers - piano not abused or significantly damaged).
I can only assume that there would not typically be a Huge demand for a fine
piano in that area of the country. Maybe $6,000 to $8,000 for a plain case
and up to $12,000 for a real fancy case. I'll buy it.
