Hi Jenifer, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. These are lovely but I don't know that it makes sense to sell all 14 together - perhaps as pairs would be an easier sell - the same buyer could buy as many pairs as they like. Based on the photos and information provided, and subject to examination, this is: Seven pairs of Art Deco bronze elevator doors from the Bank of New York building at 48-50 Wall Street, NYC. each with six drop panels, each door 95 inches high by 34 inches wide CONDITION: with some use wear PROVENANCE: ex Bank of New York building, circa 1927-1929 each pair $1,000-1,500* *represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary. Because your item has a fair market value of at least $5,000 and you indicated an interest in selling it, one of our representatives will reach out by email in the next day or two to provide some information on options for consignment and sale.
