This Mission Oak furniture suite with "carved scene from the diamond" headrests was sold by House of Herrmann at the corner of 7th and I Street, NW. $50 for the three pieces is equivalent to about $1,500 today. In 1912 the avarage yearly income was $1,033. What incredible crossover appeal these pieces would have to arts & crafts collectors as well as baseball fans today. The value of these pieces, if any even have survived, would be astronomical! View Post on Facebook · Edit Email Settings · Reply to this email to add a comment.
