Does it have something in the middle of the base? If so I have seen a rather similar but less elaborate box and had no idea what the thing on the...
Was this lot from Britain? I can see £sd, Scottish cigarette packets and a badge from a miniature railway in Kent. And UK Lions badges. Lions...
I suspect the first two are French made, the one with a local retailer's mark. This was normal practice. It would have been cheaper to import...
Unusual possibly, but they probably made up to a million of them so far from unique. Unique is one of the most abused words in the language.
Last thought, not always, or often military, in the late 19th C the globe was crawling with British administrators and traders as well as...
Your obvious market is the local prison, or a retired jailer. It is hard to imagine a damp patch on the wall that would not look more attractive.
The boats are imaginary, the rig and rigging pure artistic license. The lubberly state of the vessels, notably the nearer one, is a disgrace....
They are dead out of fashion in Britain and have been for a few years, so prices are pretty weak, but that is a good complete example with the...

If it is a value you are looking for, in that condition I'd not think more than $50. That's in the UK anyway, the US market might be keener on...
It's the base of a (1930s?) treadle sewing machine that someone has stuck a marble looking top on. It could have been done any time up to yesterday.
West Africa, Ivory Coast in style but airport art, in my opinion. The tribal ones tend to be more 'fertile' shall we say.
OK. I really think it is the Holy Grail, with much later hallmarks. Only the handle and the actual cup part have been replaced over the years but...
10K is unique to USA. It's some blokes in a shed. In general, everything is some blokes in a shed somewhere. Unless it is made by one of the few...
Your colleague is attempting to authenticate a 19th century Ford Mustang. That's a tough job.
Earlier than 1730? No.
