Yes, and be SURE that she is told at once not to have the piano 
rebuilt or parts replaced! Explain to her that its value depends on 
it being as original as possible. Bill told the story of how he found 
an EXTREMELY rare EXTREMELY early Steinway in Europe (Holland?) ONE 
YEAR after it was totally rebuilt ....... ARGH.
