THANK YOU FOR OPENING MY EMAIL. MY NAME IS LARRY ALLUMS. I LIVE IN PLAIN DEALING, LOUISIANA. I OWN AN AUCTION HOUSE IN PLAIN DEALING. FAMILY PHOTOS AND HIERLOOM PIECES MEAN A LOT TO MY WIFE AND I. THE REASON I’VE CONTACTED YOU IS BECAUSE I CAME IN POSSESSION OF A REALLY NICE ITEM THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE OF INTEREST TO YOU. I GOT YOUR NAME BY PLUGGING YOUR LAST NAME ON GOOGLE SEARCH. IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY MY INQUIRY, I’M SORRY AND I WON’T BOTHER YOU ANY FURTHER.
I’M ATTACHING A PICTURE OF A RATHER RARE AND OLD PIECE OF CAVALIERI HISTORY. ON THE ISLAND OF SICILY EVERYONE HAD WHAT IS CALLED A, SCILIAN HORSE CART. IT WOULD BE DECORATED VERY ORNATE WITH HISTORICAL EVENTS IN BRIGHT COLORS. BELOW THE BED OF THE CART AND ACROSS THE BACK, EACH FAMILY WOULD HAVE A BEAUTIFUL, FAMILY LIKE CREST MOUNTED, WITH THE FAMILY NAME ON IT. I GUESS THIS WOULD BE LIKE A PERSONALIZED LISCENSE PLATE OF TODAY. THE ITEM I HAVE WAS PURCHASED BY MY CLIENTS AUNT 30 YEARS AGO IN SICILY WHILE ON HER VACATION. THE PERSON SHE BOUGHT IT FROM, SAID THE ITEM WAS WELL OVER 200 YEARS OLD AT THAT TIME. I CAN’T PROVE THAT ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, BUT, I KNOW AFTER DOING ALOT OF GOOGLING, YOU CAN’T FIND AN ANTIQUE CART OUTSIDE OF A MUSEUM FOR LESS THAN 10,000 DOLLORS. I’M NOT IN ANY WAY SUGGESTING SUCH AN EXTRAVIGANT PRICE FOR THIS ITEM. I AM SUGGESTING THOUGH THAT IF YOU ARE A DECENDENT FROM SCILY AND YOU’RE INTERESTED, DO SOME CHECKING ON YOUR OWN AND SEE IF THIS COULD BE A PART OF YOUR FAMILY TREE.
I’LL BE LISTING THIS ITEM IN MY JULY SALE IF I DON’T HEAR FROM YOU. AGAIN, I APOLOGIZE FOR BEING INTRUSIVE.MY WEBSITE IS, WWW.COTTONBELTAUCTION.COM . THANKS,
