I have three highback stools that resemble the SGABELLO style and are handcarved. They have handmade screws and one is ebony in color. I'm having difficulty finding information about them and don't know any antique appraisers in my area. How can I identify and potentially sell these stools?

I got a cute rusk ladderback chair at a thrift shop and want to learn more about it. The chair is in excellent condition and I think it's 100-150 years old. There are no markings on the chair, and the carving appears to be imperfect, suggesting it might be handmade. I also have pictures of another chair from the same thrift store that I'm curious about. What is the age and value of these chairs, and why are the legs of the first chair so short?

I have a large copper rendering kettle stamped Hale & Sons, Bristol 1782. It is about 33 inches in diameter and 18 inches high, with other special markings. What is the value of this antique kettle?

I was offered the opportunity to purchase a set of silverware, believed to be silver-plated, that was acquired by its original owner in the mid- to late 1950s. The markings on the pieces are: XXXX 100. There are no other markings on any other piece, so I have no idea where to start to get a handle on its potential value.

I have a book titled 'THE BEATLES ILLUSTRATED LYRICS' edited by Alan Aldridge, dedicated to Rita, Miles, and Saffron. What can you tell me about its value and any other details the Antiques Appraiser should know?
