<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 198301, member: 37"]Most old things belonged to people who are no longer living. Their lives and the circumstances of their deaths need not be attached to inanimate objects in any way shape or form. I would buy it and not give the history a second thought, nor pass it on. There are circumstances where such provenance could enhance the value of objects but this does not sound like one of those instances unless I am missing something here.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
