Question
Hi Mr.Lindeblad,

Could you tell me how old my Willis & Co upright piano is?  The serial number 18756.  How much do you think it is worth?  

Thank-you!

Answer
Hi Mary,

Thank you for contacting us. Your piano was manufactured in 1918. In our current economic and musical climate, we estimate your piano to be valued at around $300-600. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask.
