Peenstra provided on-site appraisals, consultations, and collecting advice on a wide range of items, including jewelry, silver, coins, timepieces, furniture, glass, porcelain, paintings, bronzes, toys, and more.
Community members brought their treasures from home for evaluation. Appraisals were $10 per item, and spectators attended free of charge.
“We were thrilled to introduce this new event to the community,” said organizers at the Heritage Society. “It was a wonderful opportunity for people to learn more about the history behind their family heirlooms and collectibles, and we were delighted to bring a nationally known expert like Todd Peenstra to Essex for the very first time.”
