<p>[QUOTE=&quot;James Conrad, post: 391556, member: 5066&quot;]This past June at McInnis there was a pilgrim century (1620-1720) blanket chest for sale, it was missing it&#039;s lid, lock, glove box and drawer, basically a fragment was all that was left. The spindle decoration as well as the paint seemed original but still, this chest needed major restoration.</p><p>&quot;This circa 1700 dower chest attributed to the Emery shops in Newbury was likely made for Mehetabel Wicom, who was born in Newbury in 1682. It sold to a local buyer for $57,500. The chest is missing its top and its single drawer. It was published in Old-Town and the Waterside (1986) by Peter Benes. It was headed to an area collection.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>57 thousand US dollars? JESUS, that&#039;s unreal, i have seen carved Thomas Dennis chest &quot;fragments&quot; go for less, A LOT LESS.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]135827[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
