Recently we inherited a few slightly older pieces, early 1900s mostly, but some rather nice pieces from the 50s and 70s as well. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this sort of thing. We are hoping to sell most of them, and didn't want to get taken advantage of through ignorance.

Here are a couple of sample pictures. Nothing too spectacular.

I'm not sure about the actual value of the heirlooms. The best way to determine the value is to call around to various antique shops and tell them what you have. Ask them how much they would pay for the item. Then add about 50% to 300% for a market retail value. Just depends on the item. Make sure you call a variety of shops. This way you can get an accurate idea of their worth.

Also, check Craigslist and eBay for similar items and see what their selling for.

Best Wishes.
