Help selling antique book?
I have a book Titled
MUSICAL MONITOR,
or
New-York collection of Church Music
an Introduction to the Science of Music
By Ephraim Reed
dated 1824
On the inside cover, and on the couple blank pages in the beginning, there is a lot of writing done in fountain pen, as well as a number of signatures,, plus some drawings, same with the inside back cover.
How would I go about pricing and selling this item?
Thanks
Suggest first that you ‘save’ your book by keeping it away from handling, air, and dust. These all harm what could otherwise be a very collectible book.
Some use Mylar, air-tight bags.
Some store them in air-tight containers in a darkened room.
There are many ways to protect it.
Collectors favor books without torn pages or covers and with no yellowing pages, though some books are so unique, that can change.
You can find out the most about that – and even more about how valuable it may be and how to sell it at: http://www.baumanrarebooks.com Safe link.
There is ‘About Us’ at the top there (and more).
There is also a toll-free US number you can call at the bottom right, and ‘On Collecting’ in that area, too…good to read to know what to do.
Good luck.
Wish I could see it myself someday.

Decorative Knobs and Pulls – Classic Victorian Patterns in Solid Brass
Cabinet and drawer hardware is something that is easy to replace and can make a dramatic difference in the overall appearance of any room or piece of furniture. Metal knobs and pulls can become dented and scratched over time and when this happens it is important to find high quality replacements. Solid brass knobs and pulls offer classic patterns that range from simple to highly ornate and can complement any decorating theme.
Replacing the original knobs and pulls with replacements is a relatively simple task but does require some attention to detail, this is especially true when replacing older pulls. A drawer pull has two different measurements: overall length and center to center bore hole spacing. The overall length is from one end of the pull to the other while the center to center spacing is the distance between the two bolts that attach the pull to the drawer. Note: Not all pulls have the same center to center spacing – measure this distance carefully.
Choosing a pattern is a great way to introduce or enhance a current decorating theme throughout your house. By using a common theme on different cabinets and drawers you can tie the overall look of your home together. This can also be accomplished by using the same finish or similar designs and shapes on different pieces. Other areas to focus on when creating a theme include lighting (switch plates and overhead lights), window hardware (curtain tie backs, shutter locks) and door hardware (door knob sets and hinges).
Solid brass decorative knobs and pulls can vary in pattern but a few great choices include Georgian Roped, Ribbon & Reed, Eastlake, Egg and Dart, Art Deco and Fleur de Lis. Solid brass hardware can be introduced in both modern and Victorian homes and be matched easily with existing home hardware.
LookInTheAttic & Company offers a wide selection of decorative solid brass knobs and pulls. Be sure to ask questions like; what finishes are available and what coordinating knobs and pulls are available. Replacing cabinet knobs and pulls is a wonderful opportunity to have your home reflect your personality and style and bring new life to older or antique pieces of furniture.

Any trade in sports stores? Sports antique stores?
I have an Ed reed signed football, also signed authentic jersey. I have a Randy Johnson signed baseball. Where in Miami can I turn this in for money? There has to be a place somewhere… There’s no way Miami doesn’t have at least one sports collectible store. Please help me.
Selling online would be your best shot, then all you have to do is ship it but you can charge buyer for shipping. Ebay would be your best bet right now. Though they charge for you putting up a listing. Igaddadeal.com has free listing but they are not open to the public right now but I heard they will be in a few weeks but you can sign up for their e-newsletter to get notified. Selling on an internet auction will give you the best money if you get it right. I think on igaddadeal.com they also will offer to put listings up for you for a small fee if you don’t want to bother doing it yourself.
