5. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not on Facebook, though. I can usually get a value on my own online.

Just yesterday I dug out another painting in the stash because I wanted to get it reframed and discovered it was by a listed artist. It doesn't appear to be worth more than a few hundred dollars, but maybe if I keep digging I'll find a Picasso in the horde. LOL. I do have one really weird little thing I picked up once. It's a framed paper napkin that has a very faint drawing on it. It looks like that old, brown colored ink you see sometimes, but it's so faded it's hard to make anything out other than it looks like it might be a teacup. I picture someone in a coffee shop or cafe noticing an artist and asking for an autograph. I keep thinking Andy Warhol because he often drew common, everyday items, but I've never been able to confirm or deny. In any case, I love mysteries. Maybe someday I'll solve it.
