On this lively episode of the Burchard Galleries Antiques Fine Art Radio Show, host and auctioneer Jeffrey Burchard welcomes listeners from his St. Petersburg, Florida gallery (2522 30th Avenue North) for an hour packed with auction previews, valuation tips, and interactive call-ins. He highlights the upcoming two-day sale on August 15th and 16th, featuring a remarkable lifelong collector’s estate filled with folk art, advertising memorabilia, 19th-century furniture, and a rare elevated Belding’s (later Belding Hemingway) spool cabinet with spinning thread apparatus that came from a Plant City museum. Other standout lots include a full-sized taxidermied roaring lion in attacking pose and a broad array of Victorian art glass (Peachblow, Burmese, Fenton, Bohemian), porcelain, jewelry, and more from a 6,000-square-foot waterfront mansion whose attic and rooms are still yielding treasures. Jeffrey walks through real-time research on a caller’s large BHE collection hand-painted resin eagle sculpture (estimating $200–$300 based on size and market comps), fields a fun prank call about “left-handed widgets,” and evaluates a woman’s ornate vanity/perfume set with comb, mirror, and dabber (likely Art Deco or Florentine-style celluloid over silver, valued in the $30–$100 range depending on materials). Throughout the show he shares practical advice on identifying paintings (check the back for canvas age, staples vs. nails, Masonite, patches, and black-light signatures), the difference between asking and sold prices online, why dealers who collect specific niches can be the strongest buyers, and how Burchard Galleries handles everything from single high-value items to overwhelming multi-room estates with full cataloging, photography, international marketing (including Antique & Arts Weekly), and sales on LiveAuctioneers, Invaluable, and HiBid. Listeners are invited to call the free line 877-969-8600, text photos to 727-560-5333, email mail@burchardgalleries.com, or reach the office at 727-821-1167—because after 40 years in the same location, Jeffrey and his team (including son and art director Todd) still love discovering what people have and helping them turn it into the right price.
