I have 10 copyrighted drafts that my grandmother drew as an apprentice for
Carter Carburetor dated from 1942-1947 some for Dodge and some for
International. Can anyone tell me what these may be worth. They're worth
a
lot to me and I would never get rid of them, but I collect antique car
"parts" (mostly ornamental) and have been a bit curious about them. My
family and I never knew this part of grandma's history until after she
had
passed away making it too late for her to tell her story of how she got
them out of the building. So if anyone has any thoughts...

Probably worth more to you than anyone else, but without a
professional appraisal you won't know. Since you are not sellign them,
I'd suggest framing (professionally if you can afford it) and display
would be a great memorial to your GM... <g>
