Does anybody know anything about Newman & Sons, Newport, Gwent ? I have an upright Rosewood with candalabras first tuned in 1908. I have not been able to find anything on this piano. I need to know if it has any real value as I am thinking of finding it a new home - I need the space as it is not used.
