Hello,
I am Thom Pattie Chief Worthologist and would like to help you. First i would need to know when you paid to join Worthpoint did you pay $19.95 to have a Worthologist answer a question? Or did you post the question in Ask the Community for free. In order to track the problem I need to know where to start.

If you would like to email me with your question and detailed photographs of the item, I will help you directly. thom.pattie@worthpoint.com

I have 4 large etchings-very old–dated 1777 by John Boydell. Are they of any value? I wonder how I could sell them and what if anything, they are worth?

I found this article very interesting. I had several items appraised . I was insulted the way they spoke to me. packed up & left.You have to pick the right appraiser it seemto get a true value.

I have two pictures by TS Cooper RA 1883 picture 1 of sheep in paddock, picture 2 with donkey in stable overlooking two pigs, one pink and one black. These have been handed down by generations, so called very valuable? How can I get these appraised, living in Australia.

i have a 1937 ibm electric typewriter that was given me in the middle 70′s; I tested it and at thattime it was working. i did have a maintenance tag that it was service in 1937, but I can’t seem to find it. I joined the site here hoping to learn something about antique type items; I have other old NFL items also from the joining of the 2 leagues. I would like to not keep storing it. great story of luck for the lady in the story

Good evening, I would like to ask if there are any people in wisconsin, that you would reccomend for repair or restoration?
Also, would you be able to reccomend anyone to verify artist of a painting in wisconsin and appraise paintings?

I own a george colby 1911 Tilted “bringing home sunday diner” of a old man in a winter scene walking toward a cabin in a wooded snow scene, carrying a gun in one hand and a couple of fresh rabbits in the other. Walking to a cabin, with a fire glowing in the window and two foot of snow on the roof of the cabin set in the woods. I believe this painting to be a water color . I love this scene, therefore I wish to keep this one. But I would appreciate anty opinion you would share with me on this topic?
