List -

A customer of mine has just given her Mason & Hamlin A 32775 (1925) to her
church, and they want a knowledgeable appraisal to pass on to her for her tax
records.

The piano is all original except that it was refinished some time back, the
plastic key tops suggest a 1950's replacement, and the rusty nickel plated
tuning pins speak to me of repinning about the same time.  Slight cracking in
soundboard but no buzzes.

Tone is very mellow, almost muted.  Good candidate for a rebuild.

With the flurry of interest in valuation, can anyone suggest a ballpark
figure?
