This is so fun to see! Pennsylvania furniture shows up on the Antiques Road Show very often - what would that rocking chair be worth now? Ha!

Love the description of "Fine Medium and Common".

Thanks! I suspect that some of the rustic Pennsylvania German hand-painted dower chests now appraised for high amounts on the Roadshow might have been in the Common category way back when this card appeared!
