Antique Appraisal
Members of the public are invited to bring an antique or collectible to the Duluth Depot’s rotunda for a free appraisal. Denny Mager of Northern Specialty will offer opinions on the value of submitted antiques.
People may bring up to two items for an informal oral identification and evaluation of each antique. If the piece is too large or fragile to be hand-carried, clear photographs with a description of any marks and labels will be sufficient. Those bringing antiques for appraisal are asked to arrive no later than 2:30 p.m. to register in person.
This session is part of an ongoing public education program offered by the St. Louis County Historical Society.
