1939 S & S model M

[atonal@planet.eon.net]

Greetings list, 

	I've been contacted to give a replacement value apprasial for a 1939 
Steinway & Sons model M. Original condition, classic spade leg 
styling,  kept by the grandmother for the last 59 years, and is now 
going to be moved to another city and needs to be insured. 

	I need some idea of replacement value for a instrument of this 
vintage, a new M retails  up here for $ 65 K CDN, but a used piano 
dealer is selling a 1960 Chippendale M for 34 K (asking price). 

Any quotes will help me finish my overall apprasial.

Thanks in advance,
