According to bluebookofpianos.com, an Acrosonic piano with this serial number would have been manufactured in 1964.
That serial number of piano was probably made in 1955.
80 years old, 1000000000$
If it is 50 years old and recently tuned, whatever you can get for it!
I have seen them from 1500 to 800

A Baldwin Acrosonic was Baldwins designation for its deluxe cabinet style in it's smaller pianos. While it is true that most commonly Acrosonics were spinet pianos, Baldwin also made Acrosonic console pianos. Generally a console piano is one that is 40" or taller and a spinet is a piano that is shorter than 40" down to about 36". Most Acrosonic pianos are now over 30 years old . Back in its hay-day the Acrosonic was considered a very good piano but unless you find one that is in exceptional condition, there are much better pianos available today from makers like Yamaha, Kawai, and even some Chinese made pianos. Today's Baldwin pianos are mostly made in China with a very few exceptions.
The word spinet is used in a few different ways. My old Baldwin Acrosonic piano is considered a "spinet", and has 88 keys. Spinet can also refer to other kinds of instruments, like harpsicords, that virtually never have as many as 88 keys. You need to do a little more checking, and ask about the number of keys if it is a concern.
Without a serial number, it is impossible to tell how old this or any instrument would be. Even a picture or detailed description of the unit would at least allow someone to narrow down a range of years (if not serial was available).
I'm not sure of the age, but I have an Acrosonic with serial number 375356 which my grandmother bought in 1953, though I'm not sure if she purchased it new or used. Hope this helps a little. :) LeeAnn naishobi21@yahoo.com
Old tag number, I doubt it, vin number, maybe.
It would depend on its condition. It would be advisable to get it tuned first, if it is not regularly tuned. Then, call a local music store for an appraisal. If you get it tuned regularly and there are no problems with it, you can probably get a pretty decent price though. Notes: -The piano will not be worth more than what you bought it for. Steinway pianos are known for this characteristic, but this is not true in the case of a Baldwin. -Appearance will also play a role. If the piano looks shiny and new, it will increase your chances of getting a sale. -Cleaning the keys or having them cleaned will also give an aura of newness.
