FS: Keith Prowse Barrel Piano
By Michael Irwin

Hello,  I am with the [State of California] Vehicle Donation Processing
Center here in Southern California.  A lady contacted one of our clients
and offered to donate a Keith Prowse piano, circa 1890, and they in turn
asked if we could assist them in handling this item.

I am looking for both someone to appraise the piano for the purpose of
obtaining a tax deductible value, and I am looking for someone that is
either interested in purchasing the piano or selling it on our behalf.

Your assistance is appreciated.

 [ Jody told Michael that his request would be published in MMD,
 [ and he got this reply:

Thanks for your help!  I love the Internet.  I recently sold an
amusement park train via a web site.  Someone else offered to donate
an amusement park ride, and when I told him about this web site he was
able to sell it directly for more than he would have benefited as a
donation!

This Keith Prowse piano is beautiful, and probably has a value in
the $5000 to $10,000 range, but the problem is finding the correct
communication lines to put it on.  I appreciate that you forwarded my
information to someone that might be able to help me.

The piano is located in Southern California, so if you know of anyone
that might have interest in purchasing it, please forward them to me
via this email or they can call me.

Michael Irwin
