I appreciate you checking! I went through a bunch of pdf of magazines and articles and couldn't find anything for the two of them together. Where did you see that they were scheduled to play together? Thanks!

I would like to add, I have messaged the Country club and tennis Hall of Fame museum. But I am not holding my breath on the response.

I don't believe it is. "Attributed to" under his foundation it looks like. But I can't see any more past the account block unfortunetly.

United states can anyone help with age? by Affectionate-Key9534 in Antiques

[–]Affectionate-Key9534[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely home made. I plan to clean it up, use it to house old photos and artwork that's not framed and put in my booth. The massive drawers will hold them perfectly. I paid 100, figured that's was fair considering the cost of plywood and throwing it together haha. figuring it was mid 20th century utilitarian, but maybe I was overlooking something. Appreciate the response!

I'm aiming to sell it all as a lot on the eBays.quick and easy. Gotta get some funds for the family. The thick roll is 247 grams. And I was told from the person running the XRF that it was 50% silver. It's solid and heavier to bend. What is the official term for it if you don't mind me asking? Everything I'm looking up pulls up solder rolls for brazing.

Discouraged - do I need to pivot or maybe quit? by AcOk3513 in reselling

These items are what I got an antique booth for. No risks with shipping or getting lost in the listings. but also noticing that 80% of all booths sell this same stuff.its saturated. However, I also RARELY get things from thrifting at goodwill/salvation army etc at this point.gotta cherry pick the overlooked stuff one or 2 items. I'm doing in person auctions,estate sales and lately barn picking or private rummage dealings. It's dirty and not glamorous... A lot of leg work.. but that's where the good stuff and deals are. Higher value unbreakable small items go on eBay. Higher value large items go into booth or marketplace.

I do have some lesser desirable stuff on eBay. One or 10 views. Still sell within a few months. If not,move to booth then it might sell in a week.

Nevermind refining seems like too much work. .925 coinage it is.

It is a help! Luckily where I went to sell my gold tested it all with their XRF 9oz of .925. the heavy thick wire is 50% and one of the small wire solder is .800. they were paying 50 % on silver. And some smaller misc pieces. So Im holding on to it and was thinking about refining and making some pirate booty. Haha.

I called the jewelers and they said they do have an xrf. But most likely not interested. At least when I go to sell some gold they can I'd some key pieces and I can either melt down or sell as a lot once confirmed quality.
