It was a spinet, again if I'm recalling correctly & the tuning pins seemed awfully loose. He had no one that played & he was wondering if there was any value to it, I couldn't find anyone interested in it at the time & I believe it ended up in the landfill. My point is that unless someone wanted to restore it as a museum piece the cost of restoration would probably out weigh any interest as a conversation piece.
