Question
Serial number 58431.  When was is made?  Is it made of real wood?  Want to give it away to whomever wants it.  Any value?  Player does not work, needs tuning, refinishing.  Simple design.  Very dusty, but I am afraid to damage by cleaning it.  Thank you.

Answer
Hi,

Thank you for using allexperts. Your Conway Upright Player piano, serial #58431 was built in 1916. Approximate worth is $200 to $300.
