Your piano's patent dates
<p>Your piano's patent dates only indicate the time of the patent, not the date of manufacture, it could actually have been made as late as 1905. It is a late 19th century example though, its Eastlake style was popular during the last quarter of the 19th Century. As a general rule pianos over 50 years of age will need a complete internal rebuild, which can exceed the cost of replacement of a comparable restored example. For this reason older pianos of this type sell "as is" in the $500.00- $800.00 range.</p><p> </p><p>Lovejoy </p>
