I have five small Limoges plates with a green stamp on the back and lettering 'W.G.' (William Guerin??) and below these letters there appears to be crossed swords, perhaps, or some type of similar heraldry, and the letter 'C'. Immediately adjacent the 'C' is what appears to be a small underscored 'o' (Company??). There is scroll work to the left and right of these letters which appears as ornate parentheses. 'LIMOGES' sits just above this scroll work and 'FRANCE' just below. A red stamp appears all this, which reads: 'Wm. GUERIN & Co. FRANCE LIMOGES' and finally is reads 'for WRIGHT TYNDALE & VAN RODEN'. What, if anything of value, do I have?

I have a Chinese vase that was given to me as payment for a job. A Chinese girl told me that the mark on the bottom is ancient Chinese and she couldn't read it. Can you tell me what I am possessing, what the markings mean, and if there is any value to this vase?

I have a picture of some puppies with a milk bowl and the caption under it says "Where's Mother" Copyright 1892. This has been in my mother's house ever since I can remember. She has passed recently, and I was wondering what if anything it's worth. I can't make out the artist's name though. I do have a picture of it on my camera. What is the value of this picture, and how can I upload the picture for further assessment?

I have two Hardy Boys Books, 'The Secret Warning' (1938) and 'The Ghost at Skeleton Rock' (1957), and I want to know their value. The books are in excellent condition with no bent or torn pages, but the spine on 'The Ghost at Skeleton Rock' is slightly damaged. There are no dust jackets, and they were published by Grosset & Dunlap in the U.S.
