Steiner

Post by Bill Kibby »

Steiner is not an uncommon name, so there is no particular reason to connect him with the scientist. It may just be a german-sounding alias, I know of an R. Steiner in Prage, and an M. Steiner in Germany, but not this one so far. Numbers published for an unspecified Steiner are in 5 digits. Search for "PianoGen" and press the buttons for "Aliases" and "Valuation".

If it were a 100 years or more it would be "antique" but would have No antique value. The value of a piano is based more on function and condition of the Action.

Here we have a dealer who markets Bernhard Steiner - place an order with a piano manufacturer for over 100 pianos and you can have "Fred the Aussie" and "made especially for Disneyland" put on it.

Basicly, just an old upright. Have a local piano tech inspect it for you
