I love when people find out that a random object from their attic is worth tons of money! Some of the things shown are absolutely amazing and have such cool history behind them. My parents have some awesome family heirlooms that I would be curious to find out about their value. Great lamp too. That may come in handy during the winter nor'easters.Miss Val's Creationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11200441034267532187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-32638641859779941162012-11-10T05:44:56.379-05:002012-11-10T05:44:56.379-05:00fascinating post!

My mom has kept so many things from way back, and every time I visit, I enjoy going from room to room to look at them. So many memories, so much sentimental feeling behind some items. If they could speak, these things would have so many stories to tell of the people they shared space with.Plowing Through Life (Martha)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06547318824997712369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806686507038523712.post-59333566622902927862012-11-09T11:54:51.830-05:002012-11-09T11:54:51.830-05:00Very interesting and exciting post!
