Title: possible antiques
Post by: ddazd35 on March 11, 2010, 01:05:16 PM

I am new to  this site and am not really sure if what I have are antiques.  They were things that my grandparents had which I obtained when they passed.  I do know that my grandparents had these items since I was a young kid in the 60's.  How would I determine thatthe items are antique or worth anything?  And how do I know who to trust to give me proper quotes without trying to steal the items at a low price?

Post them with pics on the site and as much background information as possible.  Many markings pictured separately from a pic of the the entire item!

Welcome!
