Antique dealers or Auction houses

Does anyone have a recommendation on an antique appraiser or auction house? Someone I know has an antique puzzle that is extremely unpolitically correct. It was made by McLaughlin Bros between 1875 and 1920. Google doesn't provide much info on it and just looking to get an approximate value. Thank you

Or any good Flea Markets with vintage stuff? Watches, etc?

My father could probably tell you the value. He was a respected Antiques Dealer around here. If he didn't know, he could put you in touch with the right people, aka Skinner's Auction( the guys from Antique Road Show). let me know...

Good luck with that, John. Sorry to say, but you can't find anything anymore because of the Antiques Roadshow. No one throws away anything anymore. Yard Sales used to be the most productive places to get steals, but no more...

We still look as well, but nothing like it used to be. Bldg 19 is always worth a shot if you know what your looking for (oriental rugs). good luck...
