<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jeff Drum, post: 508247, member: 6444&quot;]Thanks, I just ordered the book. I&#039;m not really getting started and already have several pieces of early american furniture in original paint. I buy it when I see it. But it is all self-researched and from estates, not auctions, so I&#039;m on my own when it comes to figuring out what I have.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m starting to try to figure out better what I have collected over the years. When I found out there was a respected authority on old pewter who lives only a few miles from me, I filled a few boxes and took my pewter to him for evaluation (not appraisal - I was not interested in paying for valuations, just another opinion on authenticity). I was pleased to find he agreed that my better 18th century Boston pieces were authentic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
