Male, 58
I have been buying and selling antiques (and some collectibles) for over 30 yrs. started out buying and selling to help pay for college. got a degree in business admin. and worked in managerial positions for 23 yrs. but, during this 23 yr. period I kept my sanity by continuing to sell antiques in my spare time. now that I am semi-retired, I still deal in antiques - it is in my blood. I am knowledgeable in auctioning, estate sales, online sales, direct sales, and appraisals.
sorry about taking so long to get to this - busy time of the year. I believe that these were made in the 1970's or 80's. probably used as fire place boxes. not considered antiques in the true sense of the word. I'm pretty confident that value is probably well below $100.00.

sorry, I do not do appraisals online. however, there are numerous collectors who collect 8 track tapes and players. I have sold several players in the 20.00 to 75.00 range.

Although a total ban on African elephant ivory went into effect in 2016, it is permissible to donate or bequeath OLD ivory without breaking the law. It is advisable to have some provenance, if possible, to prove that the ivory is in fact antique and not contemporary. The attorney handling your aunts estate is probably aware of the ivory laws and will handle the will of the box in accordance with the law.

I would say that it is worth keeping if you have a use for it. if not, there are numerous collectors ofSinger machines and parts. In excellent condition, the drawers, handles, iron base, and other components of the machine are probably worth around $200-300. my personal experience is that it is easier to sell the parts than the entire machine.

My opinion is that a copy of Laurels birth certificate has minimal value. however, an authenticated autograph/signature of Stan on a copy of his b/c would probably be worth around $200.00. (Stan died in 1965 at the age of 74.)
