Older reel mowers like this normally sell online for around $60 to $80. Your mower needs a bit of work and you may be able to sell it for around $40. Try to sell it locally to avoid shipping cost and trying to box this up and ship it out.
Any idea of approximate age?
Approximate age would be 50's to 60's . The value depending on condition is between $40 to $160 for this reel mower!
This mower was sold my Montgomery Ward and it is probably from 1911-1914 so you do have a true antique. I believe several sizes were made - 16-20 inch.
There is one presently for sale on eBay for $79.95 so you might want to place a watch on that listing to see if it sells.
There was a question about this same mower on ThriftyFun in 2016 so you should read the answer as it has all the information on this mower.

You should read all of the listings because the more information you can show when you sell the better chance of selling for more money. Good pictures are essential.
The biggest obstacle that I can see if where you may be located as some areas are into this type of mowers and people in other areas would not pick one up for free. You may be in a good area but you should look on local venues to see if any reel type mowers are listed for sale (or free). Check Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, USA4Sale, Freecycle as these are the types of places mowers will be listed (local pick up only).
Make a decision and list it as pick up and start your price high and lower if necessary. You can list it on several sites for more coverage.
Gather your information and good pictures.
