Tracy Porter is the designer of this "Bed Tray". It is very well constructed of wood and bamboo. Leather on the top and side panels are black and hand painted. There are two (2) large side pockets (8 1/2 deep x  3, these are inside measurements), for books, papers, etc. The top measures 16 1/2 x 12 1/2. There are metal oremental latches to secure the side pockets when they are placed down. This item is in excellent to new condition. Lattice framework on the sides of the pockets. Handels for easy carring.  Would like help in pricing this item!!!

My husband and I purchased this small rocker while on our honeymoon in Alton, Illinois almost 30 years ago and it was old then.  We were told by the antique shop owner that the chair had belonged to a Mississippi River boat captain.

The chair is in very good condition and rocks easily.  The seat is very obviously hand woven with some kind of wood vine - not cane.  It is very sturdy and can hold quite a bit of weight.  It sits lower to the ground like a sewing chair.

We are not sure of the age nor the value, and would appreciate your assistance.

This seems to be a very old asian table. It is made of wood and the legs all turn inward.The top and sides have carvings of asian ladies possibly in a garden? The underside has no nails or screws in it. It has an odd type of fastner instead of nails or screws on underside..The front has a drawer in it but no hardware. It is just a fingerpull to open drawer. Can you tell me anything about it?

I have a Pure Oil/Gas sign that is dark blue with blue and red lettering. It reads "Pure", "Automatic Reminder" "Lubrication Service" with slots going down in two collums, one slot for each day. Also says "Is your name here?" and "Mail Cards Each Day". I can't seem to find another one of these anywhere, and was just curious about its background and price. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Sometime in 1987 or early 1988, I bought several pieces of pottery that had boulder opal and sterling attached. They were created by an Australian artist Georgina Elms, who did win an Australian regional/national pottery award a few years later. A jewelry store called Quilpie Opals, which mostly sold their own boulder opal jewelry and cabs, had about 10 of them available.

I got 3 of them for a total of about $1100, and have enjoyed them for many years since.

Now I plan to donate one of them to a local charity auction. I am not concerned with an exact appraisal, but they want me to indicate a starting bid, and estimate a fair market value for the auction catalog.

Alternately I can sell to a more educated crowd and make a cash donation to the charity.

I have a signed 1979 lithograph by Varnette P. Honeywood entitled "rap street"  How much is it worth?  It is also framed
