Question
I was given a Kimball Piano from my Great Aunt many years ago. I was cleaning
it today and was wondering about it's age. I found a number on it # 561941.  I
was also wondering about it's value. Thanks so much for your time in this
matter.

Answer
Hi Sally,
  Thank you for expressing an interest into our company.  Your piano was built in 1954 according  to the serial number you gave me.

  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,
