[pianotech] Early 1900's Weber Player Grand

Greetings,

I have a client who has an early 1900's Weber Grand Player Piano. They want to sell it, however, it's been in long term storage.  I'm working on gaining access to the piano to get some better info and photos but it may be a week or two.

I am told it came around the Cape in South America to California just after the turn of the century. It spent a large amount of time in a mansion in Riverside, CA and has now been in a sealed and humidified storage vault in Southern California for the last 20 years.

I know I'm not going to get a hard value, or even close, until I can get a good look at it, but I'm curious about the approximate value range and if this piano has any intrinsic value beyond just being a piano.  I don't know much about this model and the rarity of it.  Could it be a museum piece or is it just a dime a dozen?

Any insight or input is appreciated...

I attached the only photo I have of it, taken by the client several years ago. I know it looks like 3 photos, but it's all from one scan.

Thanks in advance...

Regards,

Rob McCall
