Antique Photo Album

I have a photo album which is in very good shape. it has receipts from the photos dated for 1900. The album is leather with gold hinges to keep it closed. It is full of photos as well. Does anyone know of a good site to go to to find the estimated value of the album?

There is no such Web site that I have ever heard of.
You must take it to an appraiser who must see it in person.
Be aware that appraised value of collectibles does not reflect their actual sales price were you to place them on the market, such as e-Bay.

I bought an antique photo album at a flee market and it had a lot of pictures in it one of the pictures had Howard James Blackmer from Jamestown , NewYork 1911 on it. I really do not know how to find out how much about the photo album or if it is worth any thing. The photo album itself says that it was Patented November 16, 1895.

It's really hard to say. A lot of factors go into finding out how much a photo album or photo itself is worth such as the shape it's in, the image quality, type of material, year manufactured, subject, etc. I've looked for old photos and albums on ebay to get an idea of what people are selling for/what people are paying. I'd suggest looking on there to get some kind of idea on what's out there and doing some more research. Good Luck!

My father put this photo album together he is decease has been for over thirty years it is an antique.

If your album contains original photographs, you might want to have it evaluated by an appraiser. If the pictures are collected from other sources, then your best avenue would probably be ebay.

Links are to the major auction houses. They would be the way to go if your photos are determined to have historical value.

I had an older mid-70's antique car that my father purchased brand new. He had that car since I was a child and I remember being in the car with him, going to the beach, etc.

Anyways, he died last November from Lou Gherig's disease. I inhereted the car. I took it to a garage in the spring to get it looked at and a repair shop did close to $3k worth of work on the car, including replacing all the fuel lines from the gas tank to the engine.

The last time I drove it, (two weeks after the repair work) the car actually stalled 200 yards from my house and caught fire. My wife and I are OK but it took minutes for the car to be completelyin flames.

The insurance will cover the cost of the car but that doesn't replace THAT car. I wanted THAT car, it was THAT car that I sat in with my dad going to the beach as a child. I had plans to keep it for years.

Do I have more recourse above the cost of the car? It's kind of like losing photo albums, they have intrinsic value.
I'm not trying to make a quick buck. My dad died six months ago and this was the best heirloom I had. The car is irreplaceable and burned to the ground because of poor repair work on the fuel lines. I am completely distraught over the loss of this car. Ten seconds before it lit on fire I was telling my wife how excited I was to be in the car and how I felt when I was driving the car I was with my dad. I just think its bullshit to collect the value of the car and that's it. I can't go out and buy the same car. It's irreplaceable. I just watched my dad take his last breath and now I just watched his prized car, which I was so excited to drive with my kids, burn to the ground in front of my eyes.

You cannot sue for suffering as you suffered no actualy physical discomfort, just an emotional experience.
