Am I sitting on a Fortune???

Most of the titles you have listed are not exactly comics collector's gold, to put it nicely. However, there is one issue of Albedo, #2 from 1984, that has the first appearance of a Samurai Rabbit named Usagi Yojimbo. In near-mint condition this comic books at close to $500.00 dollars. Now, keep in mind there were several reprints of this book that are virtually worthless, only the 1st print from Thoughts and Images c.1984 is worth any money. So do you have Albedo #2? If so I need to see it immediately!

As far as the other books you listed, there are some issues of G.I. Joe that are worth more than you would think. Towards the end of G.I. Joe’s Marvel Comics run, in the early 90’s, the print runs were slashed due to the failing popularity of the book. The relatively low print runs, especially on the last 11 issues (144-155) make these books very difficult to find and relatively high-priced compared to most other marvel comics of the time. The final issue of G.I. Joe is currently booking at $50 in near-mint condition, which is down from the $80 it was booking at a few years ago.

Thank you for your response. Although I do not have Albedo #2, I am familiar with the issue you speak of. I am certain I stopped collecting GI Joe long before the last 11 issues.

I have a question about a book which is said to be the 1st edition of the works of William Davenant 1673. I was trying to get a price on it, also I have some coins inherited and I was trying to get a price on a few of them which I saw in a old book that the 6 dimes my friend has are worth some where inbetween $2000-$4000 each. There is a confederate coin which is from the 1700s which has the number 1000 in the middle of it which I have yet to see it in a coin book. I will have to take pictures of it. 2 Renwa paintings of two nude ladies which are not copies. She has a picasso and not a copy either. Her grandfather was a World War II vet which he was a prisoner of war taken by the Germans. He has all types of things which me and her were sorting out alot of the antique items she inherited from him too. Even a very old unopened bottle of Grand Marye which it has a string on it which if you opened it you would have to pull the string. She is sitting on a gold mine with to much to list on here but I know she will be selling alot of it soon like the book I have listed on my webpage, she is about to sell it and I am getting prices presently. She has areas in her house that has crawl spaces which have alot of old anique items, antique everything 2 grandfather clocks which one has a gold ticker, 8 oriental rugs from the 1800s and more. I kid you not and she will be selling alot of it soon which she inherited it from her grandma. If you can answer my question concerning the book it would be well appreciated.

I am looking for information on a lighter from the 36 olympics.It is in the original box with the manufactures sticker intact.Please contact me if you can help!my e-mail is csnook4@woh.rr.com

I wonder if you might be able to help me with the value of an item I have. Years ago, I purchased wooden, hand-made chess pieces and a hand-made storage box that, I was told, was made during the Civil War era. I also have the original rules book, Beadle's 'Chess Instructor'. There is a date in the book of 1840. Can you help me with a value, or can you direct me somewhere I may search for it?

Thank you.

DO YOU THINK THIS DRAWING I HAVE THAT MR.WALT DISNEY
DID IN 1937 IS WORTH ANYTHING. OF MICKEY MOUSE AND MINNIE
IT'S 71 YRS OLD AND A ORIGINAL DRAWING GOOD CONDITION
IN COLOR AND BLACK AND WHITE?

several years ago i purchased a vintage floor lamp that looks as if it were never polished. i think it would look so much better if the dirty look was gone. i don't know what the metal is made of. any suggestions. would it be alright to clean it or just leave it alone.

i have several old prints i bought at a yard sale for 50 cent each. one is a gauguin print entitled le chevol blanc, 1947 and has a serial number, the second a gauguin print entitled, women of tahit, 1937, the third a cezanne,plate 69, entitled, the card players, a third is a homer print, entitled tonado, bahamas, 1937, the fourth is a manet print, entitled, olympia, plate 69, the fifth is the sower print, plate 13. are any of these prints worth the 50 cent i paid for them. should i keep them or chuck them.

i have 4 twa constellation in flight color foto by trans world airlines "in flight with twa color prints (?) switzerland (village church near lucerene), france (notre dame cathederal, paris), spain (street scene in seville and one of just a plane in flight. trash or treasure?

i have a poster size ad from scott, foreman and co that look as though they came from a school alerting teachers of the upcoming book of tom sayer with map and the other side for treasure island with map. at the bottom is printed: 184(2-51 litho in u.s.a.) i also have a poster size ad for webster dictiionary with an enlarged sample page of dictionary. i beleive it also is a litho in u.s.a. should i keep them or trash them.

my mother gave me some color litho prints of man's first steps on the moon. there are about 4 to 5 photographs. some are pictures included in a book about man's first steps on the moon. these photographs were developed soon after man steped down on the moon. are they keepers or not.

Hi there Kacey. I realise this is sometime ago posted here but on the UK Antiques Road Show I have seen Beatles autographs selling up to and more access of 2000 pounds which is close to $6000NZ so must be in the region of $3000 US.Depends also on exchange rates and the day for selling.
It might pay to to have a look at that Uk Antiques Road Show and just check it out..there are plenty of Beatle memoribilla collectors about still.

I have a Sunbeam Blade Electric Razor and it still works. Do you think it's worth anything. I have a picture of President Resovelt signing the social security bill. Is worth anything.

I recently found this in my parents basement. I have been trying to find out the value of this. Can anyone help me?

I have no idea what this book is worth. It really looks pretty good for being 106 years old! It was my grand parents book. It has a little wear, and the pages are kind of yellow, but it is all together and bound. The complete info on it is:
The American Star Speaker and Model Elocutionist
By Charles Walter Brown
Published by M.A. Donohue & co, 1902
467 pages

Any ideas out there what it might be worth and where I could sell it?
thanks for your help

A book's age is only part of the picture in regards to value, like most things demand for an item is the largest driver of value. Your book, though over 100 years old, still exists in
substantial numbers, we have copies of it in good condition listing at Antiquarian Booksellers in the $10.00- $25.00 range. The majority sell for less than $15.00

Most floor lamps have either a painted or plated finish over base metals such as cast iron or spelter. It's not a good idea to polish them unless you can determine what type of finish has been used. To clean them, a simple cleaner such a mild dish detergent followed by a wipe down with clean water is the way to go. Just remember to unplug the lamp before attempting to clean it ;~)))and wipe the lamp dry after rinsing it. Sometimes after cleaning a "buff up" with a soft cloth will bring up a bit of shine.

What it's worth? Bootleg LP 1969 Rolling Stones Live'R Then You'll Ever Be.Titled The greatest band on earth. Also A limited edition Sterling silver and gold mothers day plate from the Wellings Mint in 1972. Titled Indian Child in a Hommock, taken from the work of Joe Rosenthal's Children of Mankind. Any information on these items would be very helpful to me. Thanks for all your help.
