I have an old Vose & Sons, Cabinet Grand piano in very playable condition and cabinet in very good to excellent condition, with original seat NOT in good condition. Serial # is 23456
The inside of the lid has a nice decal reading: French & Sons Pianos
St. Louis, Nashville, Memphis, Little Rock, Birmingham

I am interested in date of manufacture/ origin/ history of this piano as it has been in our family for a few generations. Any information would be helpful. Valuation?

Thanks in advance,

We're on the wrong side of the ocean for details, but the number suggests about 1888.. and what a number, I suppose someone had to have it!
