I bought a lyre back chair at an auction for $13. There is a label 'Murphy Incorporated - Owensboro, KY'. It may be mahogany, but I cannot confirm. Should I attempt to strip it or just clean it?

We recently bought an estate home built in the 1920s. The home has a painting above the fireplace (painted on canvas attached to masonry, not removable) that was commissioned when the house was built. The artist's signature is hard to read and looks like A. Yan. Dep Kulfer. The painting is of a beautiful vase of flowers. We would like to know who the artist was and an approximate value of the painting.

I found a rare book in an old trunk. It's a small prayer book titled 'Day unto Day,' published by the American Unitarian Association in Boston in 1872. The book is in good shape. What is its value and how can I sell it?

I have a 1984 Cabbage Patch Kids doll, model #3900, African American with a birth certificate. The doll is still in the box and has never been taken out. I also have 2 or 3 more Cabbage Patch dolls and would like to know how to sell them to get the most profit.

I have 2 paintings of antique Chinese sailing boats. The only thing on the back is 'shirk #204, Peru Indiana'. Can you provide any information about these paintings?
