I inherited a collection of hand made antique furniture in original paint from my Dad. How should I sell it?
My father died in 1997. He was an antique dealer in the Maryland/DC area for years, and upon his death I inherited a collection of antique furniture, mostly 150 – 200 years old, all in the “original painted finish”. Most of the furniture is colorful, and it all looks well-used, but from what I’m told, that fact simply makes this type of furntirue more desireable to collectors.
I’m currently in the midst of what’s going to be an ugly divorce, and I’m having to use all available sources of funds, so it’s time to sell Dad’s stuff.
Any advice on how to go about doing that? What’s the best way to proceed?
Anybody know any contacts in Mississippi?

From what I have seen of so called American antiques I wouldn’t bother.
try selling it on eBay.
