I have found, amongst various other vintage junk, A Decca Gramaphone (i'm pretty sure thats the name anyway) and a old book, The Complete works of William shakespere from 1912. and some various white star line bric-a-brac which i believe was on the titanic before its demise.
Does any antique buff out thier know the worth of the book and gramaphone?

I would guess the Shakespeare and the Decca Gramophone have little or no value. Many, many complete Shakespeares have been published over the centuries and just because on is old won't make it valuable. You don't say what sort of gramophone it is - wind up for 78s only? Or electric and for long players? If the former there might be a little value in it from somebody who wants it as a decorative item.

I'm not an antique buff so sorry, can't help. But the best would anyway be to go to an antiques dealer who can give evaluate the worth properly and even give you a certificate stating the worth of it. Especially if the bric-a-brac was really from the Titanic, it could be worth a whole lot.

to figure how much they are worth,they have to be perfect or they have to be in poor shape. i would have to know the auther of the book and i have to know the manufacturer of the other.
