I have a fur stole from my grandmother with the name Biber's sewn in the lining. It has detachable tails and is hand-stitched in herringbone on the lining. My grandmother lived in Sydney and traveled the world. Can you provide any information about the maker or the value of the stole?

I have a family heirloom pie safe that has been in my family for over 100 years. It has been painted several times and was stored in a coal shed, so it was very dirty. The back leg is patched where it was broken, and it has been professionally stripped of paint and finished with a danish oil or rubbed-on finish. The expert who worked on it said it was made of poplar, and the shelves are very smooth despite some remaining stains. I'm curious about its value and potential places to sell it if I ever decided to.

I have 2 miniature bottles of Schenley Reserve American whiskey, unopened, non-evaporated, and with a tax stamp. They were likely purchased in the mid-1970s and have been stored in good condition in a liquor cabinet for almost 40 years. Do these bottles have any value, or should I consider drinking them?
