My parents purchased this piece in 1984. On the back it has a "Certificate of Registration" from Collector's Corner, Inc. It is framed and was purchased as such. There is no indication of what edition it is or what the title is. We've seen other covered bridge paintings but can't seem to find this particular scene online anywhere. We've searched both hargrovepaintings.com and hhargrove.com to try to find out its title and some sort of estimation of value. Are there any appraisers in the Northeast or California that specialize in H. Hargrove?? Many thanks in advance for any information you can provide!

Desk is in fair / good condition a couple of scuffs on the edges, most of the drawers have the eagle stamp on it, the hardware looks original and are still holding up. I see marking on them that have A214 / A215. There are 3 pull out shelves above R & L smaller drawers the 3rd pull out shelf is on the opposite side in the center. I have tried to find what yr it may be but I have not found any date anywhere or such serial number as I have heard some have.

has mounting brackets,yoke,and bell. have rope wheel,but center of wheel is not there.

18 Karat Solid gold lighter .. Total weight is 2.5 oz... Total weight of gold parts is around 1.2 oz Bottom is Stamped Systeme Feudor Brevete SGDG .. also says Made in France and 0.750.. Lighter has a refillable butane tank and a refillable flint compartment.. The weave pattern looks very similar to that of cartier solid gold lighters made in france around the same time... Gold buyers already came by my house and verified it is not gold plated but I didn't want to sell to someone who is just going to melt it down... Looking to sell to a serious collector who will appreciate it..

this compass is in great condition. I have done a lot of research over the years on the W.&L.E Gurley company and items similar to this one. I did find that Gurley did some work for Ford but have not been able to find another item such as this one! I am not sure if it is a naval compass, aviation compass, or if it came with a car? It does have a #4 pressed into the hinges and many markings that say Ford #1 on it. I believe it is a very rare item b/c I have researched it for years. I sent photo's to the Benson Ford museum and they di not research it b/c they could not find anything on it and I did right here on the internet about Gurley working with Ford. It is an old item and I am sure it is authentic. I bought it from an old couple and they said someone in there family owned it and thought it got brought back from the war? I would like to know the value of this compass. It would be for sale depending on what it's worth! If it's not worth a lot I will just keep it.
