appraisals

 

We offer collectors, fiduciaries, accountants, attorneys, insurance companies, and institutions a full range of appraisal services for books, autographs, manuscripts  and archives. Formal written appraisals of single items and entire libraries adhere to current standards and practices. Fees vary based on the location, size, and scope of the project. 

Tom Lecky is a Certified Member of the Appraisers Association of America and is USPAP compliant. Read below about his experience. 

 

 

 

Appraising, advising and bookselling are each strictly compartmentalized practices, and are kept very much separated from one another to avoid all conflicts of interest. When Tom is engaged as an appraiser, he recuses himself from any potential sale transaction, and works independently and without pressure to either buy or sell the appraised property.
