Found this in a wall in my home - 2/1/2012 11:09:24 PM    jkisinger   Posts: 2 Joined: 2/1/2012 Status: offline I was wondering if it is worth much? I'm keeping it because it is really cool and I am a Gordon's Gin Drinker. Attachment (1) Post #: 1

At first I thought yours was blue in color and that would have added value.... _____________________________ Joe ``````````````````````````````````` In the woods we return to reason and faith. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooTyuRd9zSg&feature=related (in reply to jkisinger) Post #: 3

Like Joe said, no value other than sentimental. Maybe a couple of dollars. How old is your house? _____________________________ Paul (in reply to JOETHECROW) Post #: 4

Could you take some natural light type photos, please? It looks to me like "mother's little helper" might have been repurposed to hold bluing at some point before it was walled up. So what wall was it? Find any other cool stuff? (in reply to jkisinger) Post #: 5
