Source : Royka Auctioneers Appraisers

Source Title
Description Royka's of Lunenburg, in Central Massachusetts, U.S.A., was founded by Paul Royka. Mr. Royka joined Skinner's, the Massachusetts auction house, as a young man, but his career evolved to consulting for many companies including Amazon.com. He also developed notable skills as an appraiser, which along with holding auctions, is the prime business of Royka's. He has been seen many times on television providing appraisals on PBS' Antiques Roadshow and the HGTV cable network.

While Royka's is very much focused on providing appraisals on works of art, it also conducts auctions, both live and online. Occasionally they include works on paper, such as a collection of very early photographs.
