[QUOTE="KSW, post: 8796870, member: 8708"]I saw an old photo album in a cabinet in a charity shop today but didn’t have time to ask to unlock it to have a proper look as I had to do the school run. The label said ‘Victorian Ebony Photo Album with photos £90’ It was very ornate and having looked online I’m wondering if it’s actually Gutta Percha rather than [SIZE=4]ebony? If I go back tomorrow please can anyone tell me what should I look for to decide if it’s worth considering buying? Do old photos have any value, are there any subject matter that are particularly desirable?[/SIZE] It was about the size of an iPad. I’ve pulled a photo from the internet as a rough guide as to what it looked like. Thanks for any help :-) [ATTACH=full]429318[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
