What are the steps I need to take? I am moving from Asia to Utah ~ and have a container filled with gorgeous pieces. Do I need to apply for a license of some sort?

I love all things historical and my dream job would be to work with a museum, auction house, antique store, etc to handle the precious objects that come through.
Is Anthropology an ideal major?
Art History?
Classics?
Thank you

I’m not looking for furniture more on the lines of old books, kodak film canisters, barbie paperdolls, games, post cards, stamps… that kind of thing.
Also I have an old ticket from 1924 for the delaware river ferry… anywhere i can find a price on that?

Is there a market for Swedish Antiques?

Cat B asked:
I live in Sweden and there is a surprising number of antiques here in the northern area. In fact there is a early 1600-1700s horse carriage which is in really good condition in my husband’s backyard. I was wondering if there is a market for me to sell antiques (brokering mainly) for US customers. I’m currently unemployed in Sweden.

For antiques such as a Victrola, how do I find an auction house that can sell it for me?

Moonjellie asked:
I have a victrola I like to sell by auction. I already spoken to 5 auction houses 2 responsed that they sell that many victrolas and they said that they can not promise great results. So they suggest other auction houses but I’m getting the same response can direct me to an auction that would help me.
Thank you for your time!
