[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 10945, member: 51"]Nice Avatar, Peter. Thanks for the link, still sorting this out. Although no one has recommended Christies so far, they do have a presence in India, I wonder if that would make them a good bet? If not, may follow up with Heritage Auctions. Appreciate the article, Pat. Finger's crossed that these are the kind of thing people are looking for these days. Also, excellent point Evelyn. Good exposure in India would be key. I hope this all goes smoothly. I haven't been asked to do anything like this before, not even sure what to charge as sort of a "middle person". My friend who is Power of Attorney is getting an hourly rate. She is asking me if I would like an hourly rate or percentage of final sale. A good problem to have, I guess, but not sure what to tell her. On another matter, let's say we go with an auction house, would I set it all up with the original owner's name, or is that going to be problematic? I suppose my friend (POA) could sign things.
