GERARD
A.J. STODOLSKI, INC.
routinely provides appraisals for insurance coverage,
inheritance or estate taxes, gift and charitable contribution
purposes.
Our
appraisals comply with current Uniform Standards
of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), government
regulations, IRS policies, ethical practices of professional
appraisal societies and other professional standards.
We prepare objective, accurate appraisals for all fair
market-value definitions, as well as replacement, estate,
liquidation and marketable cash values. Each item to
be appraised is checked for authenticity, carefully
described and photographed by us. We then conduct comparative
research and determine the most relevant descriptive
and evaluative characteristics of the autograph, manuscript,
rare book, photograph, archive or historical ephemera
that factor into its value.
All
appraisal work is completed and billed by either our
hourly, daily or negotiated fixed rate, never upon the
value assigned to your material. We will appraise a
single item or an entire collection.
We
believe our experience makes us the premier authority
in the appraisal of historic autographs, documents,
manuscripts and rare books. Please contact
us for additional information and our current availability
to schedule your appraisal.
