Hi I have some historical photo's from the Lateran Treaty between Pope Pius XI and Mussolini in 1929. These are real photo's from inside during the signing. I think the only other photo's like this is at the vatican. But please help me with maybe would these be worth getting looked at/appraised and just your opinions.

Yes they would be worth getting appraised. Also your going to have answers as to the trail they have taken since the pictures came into existence. SO depending on how you acquired them it can make a difference in the value. Also if they are truly original.

Either way they are very nice.

Hi the photographs were a gift from a cardinal who was there at the signing, the photo's are also inside a album with the title Firma Del Concordato, also has some signatures of other cardinals and Pope Pius XI right hand man who signed the treaty in his place which is Francesco Pacelli

Then yes you need everything verified. And then appraised. If for nothing else for insurance purposes. They seem like a very nice family hierloom :)

Hi do you have any idea of some places that may be able to help with appraisal/be looked at? Need some help on where to have them looked at.

Have you tried asking you insurance company? They may be able to tell you who in your area can do it. You really could use a local appraiser for this so they can see them and grade them and tell you best ways to preserve your treasure.

I asked and since I live in a small town they had no idea where to start. But have contatced a auction house and they are looking into it for me.
