The Pacific Bell Museum and Archives in San Francisco is looking for
someone capable of appraising a diverse collection of antique
telephones. Our inclination is not to use a telephone collector, but
to try to find a professional familiar with such collections.
Any suggestions from fellow Bay Areans on finding a good appraiser
would be much appreciated. Any thoughts from the List on using
collectors (who may know the subject very well) vs. using professional
appraisers (who may not have as thorough knowledge of telephones)
would also be of interest to us.
Please send local references directly to us.
Thanks, in advance for any input!
