I'm almost sorry we're in the middle of a renovation that is going to eat through all our windfall to get us to a point we can live in the home we're renovating.

Otherwise, I'd be interested and give you a fair collector's price - at 140 years old and at least 5' x 6', it should be worth $300 - 500 in as-is fair condition, and $1200 or more if in as-is good condition. (Just remember, never toss it in the washer and definately never put it in a dryer!)

Good luck with your sales, and I hope your financial issues will turn around as soon as possible.
