<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blackbird939, post: 1477615, member: 13481&quot;]Thank you all for the condolences and excellent information. Amazing how quick we can now gather information about a piece our family has had for decades. It was always a mystery. Would it be worth a small fortune? Was it genuine? Plans had been made to take to a roadshow next time they came through here (Winter Park FL). Wish I knew how my great uncle came to own it. That story now lost to history. </p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, my mother&#039;s loss was enormous to our family. She was a matriarchal figure who kept the extended family and its traditions alive. She was only 70. Cancer took yet another good soul. I see it as a loss to the whole world, as it was a better place with her in it. </p><p><br /></p><p>As I now have to handle her estate/affairs, I think I will place a value of $800? I&#039;ve seen some retail art houses listing similar items for 4900E, but I think that&#039;s very optimistic. I wouldn&#039;t sell it, but the value is important. Just curious, does anyone know what the small &#039;6.&#039; is under Leon&#039;s name? </p><p><br /></p><p>Again, many thanks. Always love forums. The best of humanity always here. This is what the internet was <i>supposed </i>to be <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
