Press Release Summary = The Top 20 Searches for Antiques and Collectibles at
Kovels.com for July 2007

Press Release Body = Cleveland, Ohio - August 12, 2007 - Kovels.com
http://www.kovels.com), the Web\'s largest free price guide for antiques and
collectibles, today released its list of the top 20 searches for July. The Kovels\'
top 20 list is based on the results of hundreds of thousands of searches that took
place on its website during the month of July 2007.

People use price guides for a number of reasons, usually to determine the value of
an item that they own. If an item isn\'t listed on the top 20 list, it doesn\'t mean
it is unpopular or that there isn\'t a demand for it. It only means that in July
there was less interest.

1. Jewelry (No movement); 2. Coca Cola (No movement); 3. Stove (Up from #7); 4.
Furniture (No movement); 5. World War II (Down from #3); 6. Silverplate (Down from
#5); 7. Occupied Japan (Down from #6); 8. Lighters (No movement); 9. Bottles (No
