RARE AND HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER ANTIQUE 1905 WEBER UPRIGHT PLAYER PIANO IN EXCELLENT/GOOD CONDITION WE ARE ALL STAYING HOME MORE. HERE IS AN ANTIQUE, BEAUTIFUL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT, ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY AND A WAY TO TEACH, ALL IN ONE. IT CAN BE USED AS A MANUAL PIANO OR PLAYED AUTOMATICALLY. IT WOULD BE A GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY TO ENJOY. THE PIANO IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND IS READY TO BE ENJOYED BY EVERYONE. I HAVE HAD IT APPRAISED AND IT IS WORTH $3,500.00 IT HAS BEEN IN MY FAMILY FOR MANY YEARS AND NOW IT IS TIME TO HAVE ANOTHER FAMILY ENJOY IT. I WILL BE MOVING AND HAVE TO PART WITH MANY HEIRLOOMS AND UNFORTUNATELY THIS IS ONE OF THEM. IT WAS REFINISHED AND REFURBISHED APPROXIAMATELY 20 YEARS AGO AND SINCE THEN RARELY PLAYED. EVERYTHING IS IN GOOD TO EXCELLENT CONDITION. I ALSO HAD IT TUNED ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO AND THEN NO ONE EVER PLAYED IT. THIS IS A WONDERFUL PIANO TO HAVE FROM NOVICE TO EXPERT. THERE IS A BENCH THAT IS INCLUDED AS WELL. I DON’T THINK IT IS THE ORIGINAL BENCH. I BELIEVE THE PIANO WAS CREATED IN1905 BASED ON THE SERIAL NUMBER. THE SERIAL NUMBER IS 64190 AND THE STYLE NUMBER IS 44P. IT PLAYS 65 AND 88 NOTE PIANO ROLLS. THE PIANO IS ELECTRIC OR MANUAL SO YOU GET TO CHOOSE HOW TO PLAY THE PLAYER PIANO ROLLS. ALL THE KEYS ARE BEAUTIFUL AND IN WORKING ORDER. THERE IS SOME ORNATE CARVING ON THE LEGS. I BELIEVE THE WOOD TO BE WALNUT HOWEVER, I’M NOT SURE. THERE ARE SOME MARKS ON THE TOP OF THE FINISH THAT NO ONE CAN SEE AND I BELIEVE THESE CAN BE BUFFED OUT. THERE ARE SOME NICS AND SCRATCHES FROM JUST NORMAL EXISTENCE AND USE HOWEVER, NOTHING MAJOR. THE DIMENSIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS: 60" WIDTH X 56" HEIGHT X 29" DEPTH WEBER PIANO IS OF INTERNATIONAL RENOWN, MANUFACTURED BY THE WEBER PIANO CO., OF NEW YORK. THE HOUSE OF WEBER WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1852. THE PIANOS OF THIS MAKE HAVE BEEN HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM BY ARTISTS AND THE MUSICAL PUBLIC. IN 1904 THE WEBER PIANO CO. RECEIVED FROM HIS MAGESTY ALFONSO XIII A ROYAL WARRANT OF APPOINTMENT AS PIANO MANUFACTURERS TO THE COURT OF SPAIN. HIS HOLINESS, POPE PIUS X, ALSO HONORED THIS DISTINGUISHED CONCERN BY APPOINTING IT HIS PERSONAL PERVEYOR AND ALSO FOR THE APOSTOLIC PALACES THE WEBER, WHEN INTRODUCED IN 1852, WON IMMEDIATE RESPONSE DUE TO ITS TONE QUALITY, POWER AND SYMPATHY. IT WS AWARDED DISTINGUISHED HONORS AT THE PHILADELPHIA CENTENNIAL IN 1876; AT THE AMERICAN EXHIBITION IN LONDON, IN 1887, AND AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION IN 1889. AFTER WEBERS DEATH THE AEOLIAN COMPANY CARRIED ON THE NAME AND TRADITION WHEN THEY AQUIRED THE COMPANY. THE WEBER PIANO, ONE OF THE OLDEST NAMES IN AMERICAN-MADE PIANOS, MADE IT A FOURTH TOP-OF-THE-LINE PIANO PRODUCED IN THE EAST ROCHESTER PLANT, SHARING THAT POSITION WITH KNABE, CHICKERING AND MASON & HAMLIN. LOCAL PICK-UP ONLY. IF YOU ARE LOCAL AND WOULD LIKE TO VIEW THE PIANO JUST EMAIL AND WE WILL ARRANGE A TIME. PLEASE EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS PRIOR TO BIDDING. HAPPY BIDDING!!!!!
