<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DBinSV, post: 351353, member: 7320&quot;]Greetings!</p><p><br /></p><p>I appreciate Peter&#039;s invitation to introduce myself here.</p><p><br /></p><p>I became exposed to antiques at an early age, as a result of my father&#039;s hobby of visiting antique stores in the Midwestern US. I must admit that as a small child, I did not enjoy what seemed like endless hours in places that held no interest for me. As the years went by, however, I came to appreciate antiques not just for their intrinsic beauty but also for the historical associations and their links with the past.</p><p><br /></p><p>What specifically brought me here at this time is that I am preparing to pass along to my niece and nephew a number of items that have been in the family for several generations. I am preparing some written information to go along with the keepsakes/heirlooms, with the thought that this will enhance the care and appreciation they receive. But I need help figuring out some of the background relating to certain items and thought I might be able to tap into some of the expertise here at this forum.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can&#039;t quite figure out in which subforum to post my first query, so I will message Peter privately, lest I post inappropriately.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you for your interest in my introduction!</p><p><br /></p><p>Dan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
