I have a Foster & Co. upright player piano, serial number 38324, and
I was wondering if you could help me figure out how old it is and how
much you think it would cost to refurbish it.

I know that's a pretty hard question to answer but it was in the
basement of the house I just bought. I love this thing and would love
to have it up and going great again.  It plays now but some keys stick
and it seams like the bellows may have small holes in them or cracks.
To make it keep playing the song I have to push them down like I'm
riding a bike at 30 miles an hour!
