Appraisals

Treasures In Writings’ principal, Lynne Keyes is a licensed appraiser conducting appraisals of autographs, books & fine art. All appraisal fees are based on actual time spent researching and evaluating the item/s. We NEVER charge a percentage of the value of the appraised item. Often there is a discount offered for numerous items.
