Having your item(s) appraised involves deep research seeking factors such as the artist or maker, time period, materials, condition as well as authenticity, and provenance or documented ownership history. 

Being USPAP compliant/certified will ensure your appraisal will be acceptable for insurance, tax and litigation purposes; donating, selling and/or inheritance. 

My certifications are that of USPAP compliant/certified, AIA, CAF, PACC, and a graduate of the acclaimed Asheford Institute of Antiques. In addition, an advanced degree in Cultural Anthropology. I have studied vintage and antiques for years, curating and appraising, 2nd generation. 

My emphasis is music memorabilia and other varied pop/entertainment culture.

To begin, simply email a photo or two of your item(s) and/or a brief description, history of how you obtained the item(s), and I will be in touch with you requesting an answer to several questions. If your item(s) is out of my forte, I will let you know immediately. There are some items I do not appraise. 

Should you have many items to be appraised or valuated, such as for an estate, collection, or similar, please advise.
