GUEST: It's an American Indian-- probably from the Northeast-- root club.
APPRAISER: And you're right, they are Penobscot. They're from Maine; it's definitely mid-19th century. But they're famous for doing these bizarre ends from the roots. Sometimes it's human faces, sometimes it's animals. Any idea of the price?
GUEST: Years ago, I had an estimate of $1,500.
APPRAISER: Right, um, I think this one would definitely reach the sort of $2,000 to $2,500 range, okay?
GUEST: That's great.
APPRAISER: It's a fabulous object.
GUEST: Yeah.
APPRAISER: Thanks for bringing it in.
