I have a print by Giovanni Muzioli, measuring 38x21, that came from Italy in the 50s. It is a wedding proposal and is on canvas. There might be a printer's mark from the 1800s. How can I get an appraisal for this item?

I have a ceramic fish with a slightly unreadable hallmark enclosed in a rectangle box. The piece looks old due to crazing.

I have an Ideal W90 Bride doll in excellent condition with braided or tightly curled auburn hair. The 14" doll has no flaws, and her bridal gown has flowers at the waist and in her hair, but there is no bridal veil. The doll is a walker with screws at the hips. What is the estimated value of this doll, and where would be the best place to sell it?
