harmonise toCollector ’s Weekly , the bill poster were found in by an unwitting student , and it turn out each could be deserving more than $ 1,000 . Here ’s how appraiser Rudy Franchidescribed the discovery :
The guy sound out his aunt had died and left him the contents of her antiques shop , which she had shut down up class before . As he went through her stuff , he found a rolling wave of sure-enough posters . The auntie dealt in article of furniture , so the posters may have been in the drawer of something she buy — I’ve examine that happen five or six times . Posters were n’t her field , so she probably just put them away .
