Gretna, Wheatland & Sons

Post by PsycheFrog »

I bought this piano today from a lady for 150 dollars and I can't find anything at all. She said somone dated it for her to the late 1800's. She said the piano had an echo to it and that it was out of tune. It had brass candle holders on it and it's also made from antique rosewood. Any info, pricing would be greatly appreciated thanks Josh Corder

The vast majority of pianos names are not listed on the net. It's antique, perhaps made around a century ago, but I can't see any rosewood! I've come across an ad with the name Gretna, but never seen one of the pianos before. See the Valuation link at pianogen.org and also Datemarks.
