Hi, I rescued this table from someone's curbside trash. I knew it was something, but originally planned a paint project. Once I started researching, I decided to clean it up and sell it instead. I've identified it as a Mersman #6651 Lyre Harp table. The value looks to be $75, or much more. Some are described as solid mahogany from the 1940s. It doesn't seem heavy enough to me. But I'd like your opinion on the age and value before I list it for an appropriate sale price. Thanks for your input.
