[QUOTE="Calcifer, post: 11130339, member: 95727"]Hi Everyone, I'm here because I want to learn more about the collection of antiques I inherited from my dad in 2010, a lifetime Antiquer from the SF Bay Area. My house in the Santa Cruz mountains was destroyed in the 2022 to 2023 floods. I salvaged what was salvageable, put it all in storage, moved to Panamá, married a Panamanian, bought a place here and recently had it all shipped. The collection is only 14 items, mostly mission furniture, but also a patch work quilt from 1903 and a Dodge Brothers WWI propaganda poster, then....a wrench collection that I don't even know how to approach...wrenches from vehicles that existed in the early 1900s. I've been on this forum for just over a day and have already received so much amazing feedback and information. What a nice community!!!! Thank you. By day, I work remotely doing business development for a clinical stage biopharma company in Silicon Valley (medicines for the adverse effects of treatments like chemotherapy and radiation) and volunteer a bunch for non-profits focused on integral yoga. My name is Mateo, but I put my avatar as Calcifer, one of my favorite characters from Hayao Miyazaki's world.[/QUOTE]
