I have several collectable items that I would like to have valued and possibly sell. The items include an 1800s lady's razor with blades still in the original tin and wrappers in mint condition, a silver 'Lord Baden Powell' fleur-de-lis badge with an original photo of the scouts, old war postcards, and an 1800s memorial brooch made of pinchbeck and alloy with real pearls, French black jet glass, and hair plaited in the back. How can I sell these items and ensure I am getting a good price?

I have a portrait of a woman signed on the back with a large monogram 'PC' overlapping inside a diamond, which is boldly two-toned in red and black. The image depicts a nude woman standing on a dock with an ocean background, wearing a large sun hat and towel, with predominant blues. Based on the style, colors, and construction, the estimated age is between 1905 and 1920. The style suggests a European origin, likely French. I have consulted with the world's foremost expert on Paul Cezanne, who confirmed it is not one of his works. I am offering a 5% commission upon identification and subsequent sale at a major art auction company. How can I proceed with identifying and potentially selling this piece?

I have an original pencil sketch of Manhattan by Robert Drinon that was given to me by him and was wondering what it is worth? It is very detailed and was matted and framed by him. I dated his son.
