Trip to Estate Auction Near Columbus Ohio Turns $300 Investment into $6-8,000

Charleston, SC (PRWEB) October 24, 2007 -- "Attending estate auctions is our business", commented Michael Whelchel the buyer for Estate Road Show.com, "but finding treasures is always a welcome surprise"! A trip to an estate auction in the Midwest seemed uneventful until the items purchased received a phone call from researcher Ann Valverde. "Paperwork written in Italian on one painting uncovered that it was an important work of art exhibited at the Seconda Quadriennale d'Arte Nazionale Roma in 1935, a prestigious invitation only exhibit", stated Ann Valverde, researcher with Estate Road Show." The second one was from noted French artist Francois Gerome. A French painter born in Paris in 1895, he is most well-known for his paintings of women depicted at picturesque spots throughout Paris. Not a bad purchase for a total of $300.

"This proves that attending estate auctions today can be very profitable if you do your homework and keep your eyes open", commented John Scherz, head of research for Estate Road Show.

Estate Road Show travels all over the country to find treasures, antiques, glass and pottery for its monthly live auctions held in Charleston SC.
