GUEST: A plow salesman gave this to my husband's great-grandfather, who owned a hardware store.
APPRAISER: Well, the wording here, which is very hard to read, but it says "Bissell Plow, South Bend, Indiana." Well, lets see what was in here, in this very unusually shaped box. So it opened up, and there's this wonderful pull-behind plow. And it's just amazing, and the box is astounding too. It's cast iron, nickel-plated. Dates from around 1900, turn of the century. Who's this?
GUEST: This is the great-grandfather that started the business, and this is my husband's older brother in 1937, and here's the sample plow.
APPRAISER: Now, we see a lot of salesman sample plows. An average plow like this, auction biddings could be anywhere from $600 to $800. But what makes this one special, just like toys, we like the original boxes. So this means a lot, and I would say at auction, with the box, we're probably looking around $1,200 to $1,500. And I'm so glad you brought it in.
GUEST: Thank you.
