| A Personal Note From Anita |
|
Insurance Coverage - Many policies have very limited coverage for theft or damage for items that are most vulnerable to these losses. Contact your insurance agent for advice on obtaining a "floater" to your homeowner's policy to ensure prompt claims settlement in the event that this should happen.

| Use A Certified Appraiser |
| Database resources give you casual random ideas of what your art might be worth, and you can make big mistakes if you misinterpret their data. You see, they give you prices for other art, not your art, and since every work of art is unique, those prices often have little or nothing to do with the art you want appraised. Lists of art prices are useful only if you know how to interpret art sales data, and only when that data is interpreted in combination with additional art price resources, art reference books, retail selling prices, and a variety of other art research tools not readily available to average individuals |
