I've been asked to appraise said piano for donation purposes. Piano has rarely been played, in almost new condition, hammers barely grooved etc. Case ebony polished, great condition. If not for the serial number, you would think it new. I know how to use Larry Fine's book and depreciation tables, etc, but dont't find the model 131. The current model 122 is of course smaller, and the 132 is the new magnetic action thingee. So maybe start with a current retail price half way in between? then apply depreciation factor.? I would appreciate any guidance from anyone familiar with the Seiler line historically as to which current model to compare. for retail price and depreciation purposes. Thanks again. Dave Smith SW FL
