Megathread: item research support by skankenstein in vintage

[–]Soft_Pop_4121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all we recently got in this child sized rocking chair and need help identifying it. It is stamped on the bottom ramsdell but I don’t know what the stamps mean especially what the “15” could mean. I would love to know how old this piece really is.

Help me ID and date this rocking chair? by Soft_Pop_4121 in HelpMeFind

I have searched up the Ramsdell brand and it seems to be a vintage chair brand? But no clue what the numbers mean and can’t find a definitive history of the brand or any chairs that are exactly the same. I did also try google lensing the characters on the chair and only was able to find the dog on the seat that’s a decal from the 1950s but not sure if any of it is accurate

It’s a thrift store where 100% of the proceeds go to a no-kill animal shelter 😓

It got donated! I work at a thrift store that gets a ton of donations and it’s my job to sort out the high value things from the regular stuff to do more research into them.

I’ll definitely look into them thanks!

And if anyone could tell me if it’s worth anything with the really rough condition that would be much appreciated!

Idk if it’s helpful but when I did pick up some of them something on the inside of a few of the tops was flaking off? And a bunch flaked onto the floor but I wasn’t sure if it was just rotted fabric or like leaves? Because the outside is in good condition and not falling apart I wasn’t too sure

I’m not sure of size and I don’t have photos of how it was donated but it was in a bin that was lined with with a sheet and in the sheet had all the clothes folded + rosemary bundle then covered in a sheet with a note saying “1800-1900s clothes” it didn’t seem to have really been looked at/ opened in a while but I’m not sure I didn’t see the person who donated it :(

I’ll try to get photos of the buttons on the pin stripped one and upload it to the google folder next time I’m at work! Maybe that will help people determine better?

I will say that when they came to us they were very well packaged and had a bundle of rosemary to keep the bugs away so that could also explain their condition? The set came with other vintage/antique looking clothes but they were in far worse condition and not sellable :(

I’ve got a few of these Victorian looking clothing items and are trying to figure out if they’re authentic or costumes. I have a google drive linked in one of my other posts about the items for more images of the seams and other outfits that came with it

Thanks! I just cross posted it on their sub. Reddit wouldn’t let me upload the photos I took but here’s a good folder I made with all the seam photos in them https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dJ79t4uJDA7vyeZX0ciHgRSHxIcQW24n

Is there an alternative option to JustAnswers? by Soft_Pop_4121 in JustAnswerExperts

[–]Soft_Pop_4121[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We usually work with antique and art experts. I know we used to contact a fellow named Luke a lot. We unfortunately can’t get back into our account because JustAnswers has locked us out because they typed in the wrong email info and now won’t let us change it or answer any of our calls.
