I’d like to know the year of my doll. I have the birth certificate and family history, but it only gives the month and day of birth, not the year. The doll has markings on the back of her head: 1978, 1983 O.A.A., Inc., and a square under the first set of numbers with #29. The doll is in fair condition and lacks socks or shoes. Is there any additional information you need to determine the year?

I am looking for an appraisal for an antique trunk. The trunk does not have a maker's mark or serial number. There is a date painted on it that looks like 1790s, but I’m not sure if that’s accurate. It is in mixed condition, missing some hardware and damaged paint.

I acquired these beautiful vases at an estate sale. They are 18 inches tall and quite heavy. They have markings on the bottom which I included in the photographs. What do these markings mean? Can you tell me anything about them and how much they may be worth? Thank you so much!

I have a set of mid-century modern end tables and coffee tables that I would like to sell. The items were my husband's grandmother's, and we are unsure of their exact age or history. They are in good condition with a few marks that could be cleaned up. How do I determine their value and find a good outlet to sell them?

I have collectors' books that I need to send pictures of for evaluation. How can I ensure the pictures are received correctly and what are the estimated values of the books?

I have two Modigliani prints framed by the Illinois Moulding Company, which I am trying to find more information about. The company was in business up until 1950. One print is titled 'Girl with Braids' from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest J. Kahn of Cambridge, Massachusetts. What can you tell me about these prints and their potential value?
