History

got these from an estate

Description

Hi I saved these stamps back from my great grandmother's estate. Some of them are postmarked, but I remember hearing somewhere (whether it is true or not I don't know) that some stamps are even accepted for sale with a postmark on them. Anyway, I collected these to possibly use in some art collages but I've been needing to save a lot of money lately to move to Portland, OR and work on getting an art business off the ground and hopefully making things a lot better and having enough money to donate to the peace corps until I get ready to join. Don't know if there are any "winners" here but am curious to know before I glue them next to a picture of a dead rat or something. I've got quite a few pictures so this will probably be a double posting if not a triple. I would appreciate any help and advice. Thanks a bunch, and take care. Emily.

Excellent

History

Given to family member, from someone who came over from Greece. We believe the box was made in celebration of the Greek independance. On the back is a cross with a bow and spear.

Description

Appears to be a silver plate of St. George(the front) and was made into a box,

welded to another box to make it the way it looks now. A handle is on each side. One person

suggested it may have been a tea box.  My husbands father who was greek, always told him there was a piece of Christs cross in the box. however, the box was opened to find two byzantine coins.

What a surprise. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Description

This is a really great little keychain. It celebrates 100 years of the Kodak company. On the front of the keychain at the top it says 1880 - 1980 with the Kodak symbol in the middle. Underneath that is a really neat old stamp captured inside the keychain. It is a 3 cent stamp with a portrait of George Eastman on it. On the back of the keychain, it says "A 100 year start on tomorrow". The keychain is tarnished in a few places but really is in great condition. It does have some age coloring. Would like to know about how much this is worth if anyone knows because it really is charming and I haven't completely decided on selling it. A really nice piece of photographic history.
