3 gorgeous 1890's Knabe uprights for sale, unrestored.

[Farrell]

Whatcha thinnin' fer a price? I'm most interested in the two 55" jobs. Please provide further details regarding veneer types and conditions, carving, etc. - I know exactly what is inside these monsters. Ivory? condition? Pictures? Thanks.

Oh, and BTW, string looks OK, and I already have installed the Bolduc block in my M&H upright. Thanks.

Terry Farrell
