Sentimental Value Less than $100 $101 to $500 $501 to $2,000 More than $2,000	Cast Iron Kettle Description: This black cast iron spouted kettle says Rome Stove Works on the top lid. There are no other markings. It is some 5 1/2 " high, 11 " from spout tip to rear, and weighs some 10 or more pounds. The lid opens by swiveling sideways and has a finger (or stick) catch to raise it slightly. It is in fairly good condition, with just some minor chipping along some edges. It was purchased several years ago with an unknown history. The Rome (Georgia) Stove Works goes back to the Civil War and was purchased by the Bowie Stove Works by 1910, but we can find out little else concerning the firm. We don't know if these have ever been reproduced or not..


Miro Lithograph Description: This is a Miro lithograph, purchased at a Chubb Insurance auction about 10 years ago. I was told that it was part of a pair; the other one was destroyed. There are earlier Sotheby's auction labels on back. The lithograph is signed and numbered 57/100..			Sentimental Value Less than $100 $101 to $500 $501 to $2,000 More than $2,000
