Press Release Summary: With over 600,000 antiques and collectibles in its online
price guide, Kovels.com today released its top 20 list of the most popular searches
for September 2007.

Press Release Body: Cleveland, Ohio - October 06, 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 September. 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 September 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 September
there was less interest in finding prices for that item.

1. Jewelry (No movement); 2. Stoves (Up from #4); 3. World War II (Up from #6); 4.
Furniture (Up from #5); 5. Coca-Cola (Down from #3); 6. Occupied Japan (Up from #7);
7. Silverplate (Up from #8); 8. Lighters (Up from #10); 9. Cookie Jars (No
movement); 10. Capo-Di-Monte (Not listed last month); 11. Planters Peanuts (Not
listed last month); 12. Lladro (Up from #15); 13. Pottery (Up from #20); 14. Knife
(Up from #17); 15. Painting (Down from #11); 16. Phonograph (Not listed last month);
17. Royal Bayreuth (Not listed last month); 18. Royal Dux (Not listed last month);
19. Clocks (Down from #16); 20. Dolls (Down from #14).

There are five new categories on the September list that were not included in the
August list. Also note the surge in World War II searches. This is probably due to
Ken Burns\' new epic documentary \"The War\" which has been appearing on PBS stations
across the U.S. in recent weeks.

The Kovels\' \"Top 20\" list of antiques and collectibles has been published monthly
since 2002 and is offered by Kovels.com as a service for collectors. Accredited
media interested in discussing the content of this release or any topics related to
antiques and collectibles are encouraged to contact the Kovels to schedule an
interview.
