Dr. Lori Offers FREE Antique Appraisals March 21
St. Petersburg, FL (March 13, 2008) - Nationally known art and antiques appraiser, syndicated columnist, and TV personality Dr. Lori returns to the St. Petersburg Public Library on Friday, March 21. Dr. Lori will present her popular "What’s It Worth? With Dr. Lori," an art and antique appraisal event starting at 1 p.m. at the St. Petersburg Main Library Auditorium, located at 3745 Ninth Ave. N. In conjunction with the Library, as a community event, Dr. Lori will be providing one free antique appraisal (typically a $20 charge) per person. Additional items will be appraised at $20 per item if desired. You must arrive before the event starts at 1 p.m. to receive your numbered ticket for your free appraisal.
Attend and see how Dr. Lori is not your typical antiques appraiser. Crowds stay for hours to listen to her honest, educated, and straightforward approach as she tells you the truth about your family heirlooms and yard sale finds. She’ll tell you secrets about your china closet and what O.J. Simpson may have in common with your grandmother!
Where do you think auctions and antique shops get all this valuable stuff to sell? Nobody thinks or wants you to know, but these valuable items come from your house or grandma’s house that you or your kids just threw in the trash. Dr. Lori knows that after reviewing more than 20,000 objects a year at events and in people’s homes that “You have the Stuff!” in your house. Attend the event at the Library in St. Petersburg as Dr. Lori reveals secrets that you won’t hear from any other antiques appraiser. You’ll have fun even if your “treasure” is “trash.”
The event is free and open to the public.
