I am assuming this is an upright Circa Wurlitzer made in 1930 . A similar model was sold here for £300. https://santamaria-ca.americanlisted.com/music-instruments/upright-gulbransen-piano-circa-1930s-300_26296029.html Some are going for more like £500. Others are being given away for next to nothing! (£35 or less!) It depends entirely on the condition of your piano, not just what model it is. I suggest you pay for what is called a "blue book" valuation of your piano. You can do it all online and it costs around £25. http://www.concertpitchpiano.com/Appraisal.html

I don't know the answer and I suspect some research and an expert viewing will be needed. Traditionally black keys were made of ebony and the white of quality softwood overlaid with strips of ebony, though celluloid was widely used and some early plastics. It would depend as much on the intended market as the reputation of the manufacturer, in fact it was reckoned some of the quality brands have sometimes used spare capacity to produce "cheaper" instruments which were sold under different brands.

I am sorry but we are not an appraisal service.

Your piano was manufactured between 1976 and 1980. Source: http://www.total-piano-care.com/wurlitzer-pianos.html

I would put money on the belt snapping. 5 years is about right. Especially if you do not use it often. The slow down and hesitate is even more indication of a belt getting hard and then slipping and snapping. They need to keep moving to stay soft. Get a new belt and you will be likely good to go.

2 choices: replace power supply transformer or replace motor to get the right speed and the right sound pitch.
