We are glad you joined too !! Hopefully in the next few days we can get opinions on price for you !!  My personal opinion is that $750. would be the high end !!  And that's for all three !!  These things just do not sell like they used to,,or at least not for the price they used to get !!  Most homes do not have formal parlors and these would not work well with todays home styles !!

Thank you. And you are correct about the homes these days. That's why I absolutely love the older homes. They just don't make them like they use to. We also restore homes in our area. Some call it flipping, which I do not like and we actually made the paper a few months ago. We just finished a 1900 home that was close to demolition. (That's how we ended up in the paper). Some neat finds we found there. Like whiskey bottles hidden behind the walls from 1900-1910. I kept them because I decorate my own home with antiques. Thank goodness the "Mister" enjoys antiques too.  ;)
I have a lot more to post and will get to it very soon.
First I want to take some better pictures. LOL
I look forward to other opinions that you and others may have on these items!
