I am not one that will ever be in the same rarified air as your fine collection, but being one that did have a bit to do with the collector car market, I have a suggestion. First, I would get no less than two but no more than three independent appraisals for each and for the collection, if purchased as a whole unit.
A call to the folks that run the "Vintagers" event may be able to give a you a suggestion or two also. No shortage of disposable income at those events.
Diggory Hadoke is the first to come to mind along with Charles Schneible of British Sporting Arms, Millbrook, NY. (www.bsa.com) The third is Toby at Heritage Guns (http://www.heritageguns.co.uk/hgframset.htm) All three have been most helpful to me with even the most mundane and trivial questions.
If I win the Lottery this week, I will send you a note and be on my way to take the entire lot off your hands!
