Find out what your keepsakes are worth! Brattleboro Area Jewish Community’s own mini-version of “The Antiques Roadshow” will be live at our synagogue on Sunday afternoon, May 22nd from 1:00 to 5:00. Four experienced appraisers will be present to evaluate and assess antiques and collectibles, including books, sterling silver, silverplate, glass and art glass, china and pottery, fine art and signed prints, musical instruments, records and entertainment memorabilia, jewelry, paper, stamps, postcards, documents, furniture, toys & dolls, metalware, clocks, barometers & watches, rugs, tchotchkes (nick-nacks), and much more – but no weaponry or ammunition and no large rugs or bulky furniture.
The appraisers are local dealers Richard Michelin (sterling silver, glass, china), Kit Barry (paper goods, documents and ephemera), Stephan Brandstatter (art, music and entertainment memorabilia, and general) and auctioneer Sharon Boccelli (all categories). The appraisers are knowledgeable in their respective fields and will offer an accurate valuation of your personal keepsakes based on current trends and market value. There is no admission charge; you can come to the synagogue any time between 1:00 and 5:00. The cost for each item to be appraised is $5 (cash or check made out to BAJC), with a limit of six items per person. Be amazed or amused as you find out what your prized possessions are worth! If you have any questions or want more information, call 802-257-1959 or email: getmusic@sover.net. BAJC is located at 151 Greenleaf Street in West Brattleboro.
