Out of curiousity... I have a wooden LeBlanc Normandy (it has a
plastic bell & is inscribed "special edition" or something to that effect)
which I bought for $40 at a yard sale and spent about $70 refurbishing. My
local music store guy gives hard-sell pitches to little kids, so I don't
trust his estimate. Any idea how much it's worth? Also, if I provided
the serial number, could anyone tell me how old it is?

Thanks
