Free Antique Appraisal Wednesday, March 16, What’s Your Stuff Worth

You have been staring at that thing on your wall, mantel, or hanging over the fireplace. I wonder if it’s worth anything. It might be, and you can find out by stopping at the depot and get it appraised. Maybe those old figures or decorations could be worth money. Who knows what someone would pay for something like that, the people that are lined up to look over your stuff.

Bring your antique/collectible items to the Depot Wednesday, March 16, 2016 The St. Louis County Historical Society has arranged for Dan Sershon of Northland Estate Services and Denny Mager of Northern Specialty, both experts in antique appraisal, to be at your service from noon until 3 PM in the Rotunda. Please arrive no later than 2:30 PM to register in person.

You can bring up to two items to be appraised. If you know more about it that might help you. If the piece is too large or fragile to be hand-carried, clear photographs with a description of any marks and labels will be sufficient.

In the past people have been surprised.....and you may be too. This may be the chance to see if something is worth money and deal for some big money, or  put in the next garage sale for a quarter. Especially old toys and collectibles.

This session is part of an on-going public education program offered by the St. Louis County Historical Society. Sponsorship does not imply endorsement of this or any other estate/appraisal service, and museum staff is prohibited by professional ethics from making financial appraisals.
