There should be a rule about artist’s writing needing to be legible!

1st edition, 1st print of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

It’s in terrible shape, though and missing the page of Twain’s bust.

In excellent shape, it’s worth $30K or more.

Does anyone know the values of Case knives? My grandparents left me a set, would love to get values on them.

Those are very easy to look up on eBay. There’s a huge market for them

That's the thing, the markings on them are similar, so valuation of a knife can fluctuate from $1k to $200. I'll post a picture after kids get up from nap.

I looked it up in the past. I can't recall any info on it, but it ain't worth much. Maybe $50.



my brother has one similar also. We looked it up about 10 years ago and it was $50-75 then iirc.

My father gave this to me before he passed. He said his grandmother gave it to him.

Are you sure that Maravich signed it? That is a horrible autograph. If it’s real, I would value this $600-$1200.
You need to get Kareem and Dr J to sign it

Here’s one my grandfather purchased in the early 90’s. He said he thought Mawmaw would like it because it was a religious work of art.

Yes. 100% sure it’s real. Would getting autographs of people on their now make it increase in value?

Getting two HOF super stars to sign that, it would go up by $100’s, if not $1000+

I already have a good idea what this is worth, but I just wanted to share it for those who have no idea what these are.

This is a quilt, or in this case, a pillow cover, made from Victorian era cigar ribbons. Men smoked cigars that came packaged and bound with silk ribbons. The women saved the ribbons and made things out of them. We got this in a huge lot of lace, dollies, table runners, and whatnot that my Mom wanted off of Ebay. She spotted the corner of this, which was the best piece of the lot poking out from under some other things. It wasn't even noted in the description.

It has a greater variety of cigar names than any others I've seen, but doesn't have any of the rarer colors. It also has a fancier herringbone stitch that most don't have. My favorite cigar name of the bunch is "I'll be Hanged if I Do".








My Pops snuck it out one Christmas and had it professionally framed with museum glass and all for my Mom.

Here's an interesting piece of what I've always thought is trench art. It is a coffee cup with what looks like a ring, maybe, on the handle. There are two separate birds engraved on each side and the name "Lou" on it.

Thanks. It is cool seeing all the different cigar names. I tried looking some of them up a while back, but didn't have much luck.
