I was wondering if this painting by Edna Palmer Engelhardt is worth anything? It shows a covered bridge with a woman and little girl walking towards it or away from it, and it is signed. The painting is roughly 24” x 36” and is on a hard substrate material like wood or something.

I have a family heirloom book titled 'The Dramatic Works of William Shakespeare, with Biographical Introduction By Henry Glassford Bell,' printed in Glasgow by Blackie & Sons, Edinburgh and London in 1877. The book is in good condition with some minor wear on the cover and spine, a tear on the second page, and some moisture marks on the internal pages. What is the value of this book and how can I sell it?

I have antique garters passed down from my mother's side of the family. The measurements are 43" X 1.75" (from either end to the beginning of the middle), and the mid-section is 12" X 1.25". There is a written description on the envelope that contained the garters. Can you provide an appraisal and any advice on preserving or displaying them?

I have a 1962 porcelain Virgin Mary statue with a tag that says 'by Basilica' and 'made in Japan'. The face and hair are painted, and her cloak is lined in gold. What is its value?

I have found a lone plate that is just over 8 inches in size. There is an insignia on the back that I can't make out, but I think the words above the object say 'Hand Painted'. Can you help identify the plate and its value?

My sister and I have 4 photos that belonged to our great grandmother. They measure 4.5" x 5.5". There is no glass, just the frame with a quilted mat and the oval photo. There are no markings on the front or back. My sister was told that they are of value. We would appreciate your help. I have a picture if that would help. The photos are probably late 1800's or early 1900's.
