Free 'Instant' Antiques Appraisals To Be Offered On-line
To launch her first novel, Consigned to Death, Jane K. Cleland has partnered with renowned auction house, Leslie Hindman, auctioneer, to announce a free on-line antiques appraisal service.
New York, NY (PRWEB) March 16, 2006 -- To launch her first novel, Consigned to Death, described as an Antiques Roadshow for mystery fans, Jane K. Cleland and Leslie Hindman have announced a free antiques on-line antiques appraisal service available through Jane’s website, www.janecleland.net. ;
“Send us photographs and a description of your antique or collectible with whatever history you know about it, and a professional appraiser from the world-renowned auction house, Leslie Hindman Auctioneers [www.lesliehindman.com, will give you an idea of the piece’s value—quickly—and for free!” Cleland explained.
Cleland got the idea from her Consigned to Death protagonist, Josie Prescott. “Josie is an antiques appraiser and her company runs auctions and tag sales. In the book, Josie initiates Prescott’s Instant Appraisals, so offering an on-line version is a natural extension of the book—and it’s a lot of fun!”
Consigned to Death, the first in a traditional mystery series, will be published April 18, 2006 by St. Martin’s Minotaur. [ISBN 0-312-34725-1
