Local Experts Appraise Dozens

Of Items At GOHS Fundraiser

A team of experts – from left, Kevin Herrick, Lettis Auctions; Al Bullard, the hops experts and Milford collector; Lynn Price (with husband Dale behind her), extensive collectors of antique buttons; Bob Turrell, the Market on Chestnut Street, and GOHS stalwart Loraine Tyler – assess a tool provided them by Charles Bullard, Al’s brother, who is visiting from Morton, Pa., during a fundraising appraisal night at the Oneonta History Center. GOHS Executive Director Bob Brzozowski said 30-some items had been brought in by 6:30 p.m., halfway through the evening. The experts decided this tool was a “threader” that added threads to homemade screws and bolts. (Jim Kevlin/allotsego.com)
