Hello, I am looking for information on the Steinway L piano.  This one  
was built between 1929 and 1930.  I'm not familiar with this model and  
am wondering if there are any peculiarities that might make it  
expensive to maintain or difficult to regulate.  I'm advising a  
university on this matter as the owner is considering gifting the  
piano to the school.  It is in good condition overall.  Sound board  
and strings look good. Pin block is solid and the overall pitch is  
flat about 25 cents. The action is very sluggish and would need a full  
regulation.  The hammers have about 1/16 to 1/8 inch wear on them.   
ANY info on this piano would be helpful, including a ball park market  
value.
Thanks in advance!

P Jenkins
