I have a book titled 'Flavius Josephus ...leather bond....excellent condition.... volume II Boston, printed & published by S Walker, Newbury Street 1823'. It was found in Hollis NH. The pages are stained around the edges, but otherwise, it appears to be in excellent condition. What can you tell me about its value and condition?

I found a hand-beaded velvet-covered ball on a footed brass base with a brass finial at an antique store estate sale. The ball is about 5" in diameter and has 3 brass "leaves". I'm curious about its origin and purpose. What could it be and what is its potential value?

I recently unpacked many old items belonging to my grandmothers and mother, including stamps, coins, old postcards, lamps, needles, WW II items sent home by my dad, and many other items such as Look Magazine from the day Kennedy died and Flight From Dallas, as well as books from the turn of the century. How do I go about getting a fair market value for these items and who can I contact for assistance?

I'd like to know the era this piece came from, its value (retail and insurance), and the type of wood it is made from. It also has two shelves that are not pictured.

I have a 3-inch high statue of a World War 1 military soldier that is supposed to be very valuable. It was kept in a safe deposit box for 35 to 40 years. I don't know anything about it.

I have a miners safety lamp from the 1800s. It is a kerosene-fueled lamp with no stamping or ID, used to check for methane gas in coal mines. The lamp is 7 3/4" tall and predates carbide-fueled safety lamps. What is the value and history of this lamp?
