Can anyone help me track down the artist here, or maybe even just give me a rough guess?

It’s an old piece, and it looks like it’s signed "Babitch" at the bottom.

Does anyone here know much about these kinds of vessels—and more importantly, what that number stamped on the side might actually signify?

Hey there...
My parents asked me to look into whether these paintings are actually worth anything. My mom received them as a gift a long time ago—they’re supposedly by Mike Kovachic—but I can't be entirely certain. Now, they're feeling a bit of a squeeze with money being tight on a small pension, so they're considering selling them. Is it worth the trouble? Or just more clutter?

Some guy named Kovacic, maybe... but definitely not the famous Mijo.

Hey there,
I’ve come into possession of a complete set of the Meyers Conversations Lexicon from 1908. If anyone happens to have a sense of what the approximate market value might be, or perhaps knows a good place where I could get a professional appraisal... I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can take some old photos to get them appraised?

Seriously, what even is this thing and does it actually have any value?

Where on earth can I find some expert appraisal for an old wall clock, specifically looking at its provenance and who actually made it?
And seriously, what kind of damage are we talking about price-wise?

Got a trunk here and I have zero clue where it came from or what it's actually worth. Any info at all would be huge. Thanks 😉

Does anyone happen to have more information regarding this item? Specifically, does anyone know where one might go to sell it, or perhaps what its current market value might be?

Does anyone happen to know anything about the artist or this painting? It’s in rough shape. I found it tucked away in some elderly lady's basement, and honestly, it speaks to my soul. If you have any leads, please, share them.

Hi everyone! I'm looking for someone who might be able to help me identify two wristwatches 🙂 I'm curious to know how old they actually are. I tried plugging all the information from one of them into Google, but I couldn't find any specific results. This is everything inscribed on the watches: 1. A.W.W.CO WALTMAN COIN 18106; 2. Greiner, Quartz

Could you all take a look at this listing and give me your honest take? How much do you think this painting is actually worth?

I’m curious if anyone can actually crack the code on this signature. Sorry about the grainy quality, by the way...

Hi there 🙂

Does anyone here have any experience or insight regarding moving antiquities across international borders when you don't have formal documentation? Specifically, I’m talking about items received as family gifts—things discovered on private property by relatives years ago.

It’s a small statue from a region where we just don't have any local experts. A few years back, I actually ended up in conversation with some folks at the British Museum, and they suggested I bring it in for an evaluation. When I explained that I didn't have the piece physically with me, they told me to just email over some photos. I never followed through on that, though. Honestly, I was too worried about the potential legal headache and what kind of scrutiny it might trigger. This piece was brought into the country way back during the old American era, likely slipping through the cracks simply because customs officials missed it or were looking the other way.
I'm genuinely curious about its origin, but I can't find anything remotely similar online. My guess is that it came from a site that was never officially reported to the relevant authorities in its home country, or perhaps it's just from a minor site that never made it into the academic record.

Hey there,
I was wondering if anyone here has heard of that painting by Đure Pulitika featuring an old captain?
