Meanwhile about ten feet away, there was a Hull Little Red Riding Hood jar and along with the jar, the owner had several pictures of an awesome looking collection of Little Red Riding Hood pieces. She was also given a very wrong appraisal, as I heard her being told the total collection was worth in the $450. range. I didn't say anything, because the lady with the jar quickly told the appraiser that the jar was almost worth that amount alone. The appraiser looked surprised.
By now it was my time with the Sylvestri and I am sure the appraiser was annoyed with me -- as she said "I can't help you with that jar". Which was really okay, if you don't know, say so. As mentioned above, you can't expect appraisers to know everything and no one knows that better than me. She also related that the person who normally appraises the cookie jar type items had missed a plane connection and didn't get to the show.
