Description

Bought by my Great Gandfather at the 1904 Worlds Fair in St. Louis.

It was told by generations before me that, Scott Joplin preformed at the Worlds Fair using this paino.

All keys are in tact, Needs to be tuned. Never refurbished. Has been in our family since 1904.

Not shure of what kind of wood it's made of.

Should i keep it in original condition, or have it refurbished?

Anyone know what it's worth?
