I would suggest finding a member of the National Association of Appraisers. There may be one near you, or you might be able to work with someone over the internet. He or she should be able to tell you whether a full appraisal is worthwhile after a quick inspection or a few detailed photos. Make sure to send dimensions and pictures of any maker's marks. A full appraisal will cost some money, but then you will know what you have. If you get one, let me know how it turns out.

We want to sell them or donate them to a museum. what could they be? Are they of value?
