Frontier woman in a coral dress with blonde hair & a bonnet. She is cooking over an open fire while a man and a little boy with a water pail watch. There are 2 cover wagons in the background. I can take pictures if necessary.

sign is up at a GM dealership in Marion Virginia. The owner stated that the sign was put up in 1968.

My mother just passed away and I got this cedar chest. Not sure I want to sell it, but need to know value for insurance and my own interest.

It is an item I was asked to help sell. We were asking for $175 for it until I was told it is an antique. I went to this site and found out that it is worth far more even with some need of TLC.

The carvings and style appear to be the Revival Colonial period but it lacks the metal mechanism which makes me feel it is much older. I'd like confirmation on a general period and with it's condition (a table with LOTS of history) how much it could go for.

Thank you for your time in advance,

Annie C. Borden Holmes

Hand painted 10 piece set of 9 plates and 1 platter. All are decorated with a fish, some floral designs near the edges, and gold trim on the edges. 3 different types of fish are used, with one type repeated on 3 plates. The back of each plate is signed with F.4. and the number 95, 103, or 122. If anyone has any information about who the artist is, it would be appreciated. The condition is great except some of the gold trim has worn off.

Fold down ends. Pulls apart with extra leaf. Legs are spiral design.
