where do I start?

I'm pretty sure I bought it the mid 1970's. The model no.inside says 11144 made in New Hartford, Conn. I've had it in it's case unused for over 25 years. I think because I didn't unloosen the strings, the tension created some cracks from the bottom on the face up to where the strings are pushed through. A 7" crack on each side. I may get it repaired or just try and find out it's general value which can't be much. It has the natural wood finish. Any input would be most appreciated, Walt PEZ Posted 2011-05-17 5:44 PM (#1556 - in reply to #1555) Subject: Re: where do I start?
