Antique Musical Instruments/Smith and Barnes upright

Expert: Todd Lindeblad - 2/21/2010


Question
I inherited a Smith and Barnes upright and wanted to know the value.  The only number I found on it was on the left front  #79473.  Its in great shape other that a few internal things that need to be fixed.  My grandfather started the Symphony Orchestra here in my town some 60 years ago and was a professor of music here at Louisiana College in Pineville,la. Both sides of my family are into music. My Aunt teaches a lot of instruments and I got this piano when my grandmother past away.  Would you happen to know anything about the piano? and its Value.  Thanks Jamie

Hi,

Thank you for using allexperts.
