[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 2857855, member: 5066"]Meanwhile, another attributed Bieber chest is up for sale at Freeman's Oct 28. It has its original lock and hardware. No other info on condition is provided, it seems auctions are getting wary on this subject lately. I have made inquires as well as asked for additional photos. My observations from photos provided so far. The feet are replaced & some inpainting has been done The brass pulls are original & exactly the same as mine The breadboard ends are exactly the same as mine The dovetails ( except for the feet) are wedged, as are mine All in all, a very attractive example in good condition considering its age. Estimate is 30k-50k so Freemans as well as consignor are hoping for big numbers on this chest.
