Did you buy something of value at an estate sale, or have you been left a priceless family heirloom? Would you enjoy learning about its history and possible worth? Join author and antiques expert, Mark F. Moran for an informal antique and collectibles appraisal.

If you would like an item appraised, please review the list of acceptable categories and excluded items. Email edgebrook@chipublib.org with the following information: name, phone number and item description.
