You have been staring at that thing on your wall, mantel, or hanging over the fireplace. I wonder if it's worth anything. It might be, and you can find out by stopping at the depot this week.

Bring your antique/collectible item to the St. Louis County Heritage & Arts Center for a free appraisal on Wednesday, September 16, 2015. The St. Louis County Historical Society has arranged for Dan Sershon of Northland Estate Services and Denny Mager of Northern Specialty, both experts in antique appraisal, to be at your service from noon until 3 PM in the rotunda. Please arrive no later than 2:30 PM to register in person.

You may bring up to two items per person for an informal oral identification and evaluation of each antique. If the piece is too large or fragile to be hand-carried, clear photographs with a description of any marks and labels will be sufficient.
