Check out our blogs for some background on our house (that the mirror was a part of) And while you can bid on this lovely peice of history.
I have a folding rocking chair with a wood frame and upholstered seat and back. All of the information I have found so far on these chairs do not have arms, this one does. There are no markings of any kind that I can find and I would like to find out some information on its origin. Anyone familiar with folding rocking chairs can email me and I will send photos. Thanks Pat paeastman@gmail.com

I bought two antique/vintage sideboards yesterday for roughly under $150 a piece. These are absolutely exquisite pieces, excellent condition. I want to try to identify these pieces and get a general value of what to list them at. I've already went through a identification process with people over at Metafiler.com regarding the piece, but I'd like to find some definitive answers. The pictures are here: http://pickett.asmallorange.com/~jlrolin/images/craig/
Most people believe this is a reproduction piece of very early furniture, but it was potentially made in the early 1900's. Check out the thread here on what has been uncovered so far. http://ask.metafilter.com/125372/Help-me-find-out-what-these-antique-pieces-are
I have an antique McCaskey adding machine. I belive or should I say I have been told by the person I purchased it from at a flea market in Iowa that it is circa 1919-1920 and that it should be worth about $85.00 -$100.00. I am wondering if anyone can give me some more information on this or would be interested in purchasing it from me.
Hi there. I have a beautiful bedroom set (dresser, mirror, nightstand, headboard and high chest) and need help identifying the possible era, style, etc. The only markings are nice "Made in Grand Rapids" labels on the inside top drawers of the dresser and high chest. I have several pics and can email upon your request.
