Services I offer:

  • Free estimates as to whether or not the collection, or item, has monetary value warranting an appraisal.  In some cases, an appraisal may or may not be mandatory, regardless of the monetary value. 
  • Consultation, for a fee, on the monetary value of items I appraise. 
  • Appraisals, for a fee, which contain a letter of appraisal, with letter of certification, which may or may not, depending on the intended use of the appraisal, contain a printed appraisal spreadsheet which contains data pertinent to appraisal, and / or electronic file of same. 
  • Cataloging of book, map, ephemera collections, or professional or personal archives, for a fee.
  • Photo documentation of collections, for a fee.
  • For non-profit organizations having book sales, I have often offered pro-bono services in consultation on the pricing of the unusual books in that sale.  This offer has limitations and qualifications, so please feel free to contact me about these.
