Where can you get an appraisal of your 1917 Chicago Portrait company picture?

You are looking for a personal property appraiser, preferably one whose subspecialty is fine arts, photography, or antiques. There are two national societies which accredit personal property appraisers, the American Society of Appraisers (http://www.appraisers.org/) and the Appraisers Association of America (http://www.appraisersassoc.org/). Their members have passed educational, ethical, and experience requirements that qualify them as professionals. Of course, they don't work for free. If you're looking for a free or lost cost appraisal that's accurate, don't look online, but instead look for a local appraisal clinic at a fair, charity fund raiser, or a show (antiques, crafts, etc.). If you think the picture might be really valuable, consider taking it to an auction dealer, such as Christie's or Sotheby's, who will give a free opinion of value.
