    One of my HVAC guys told me, that he had a bunch at one time, and they had some type of carving on them. He did some research and found a buyer, and made over $15,000 on the ones he sold to the buyer. Whether that is myth or fact, I don't know, but if it was fact, one hell of a score!!
    That was probably true...my family has been into antiques for a long time and these tubs bring in the big bucks!! Do some research in the big cities. Look for house restoration companies...they are always looking for these for restoration projects. Whatever you do...don't scrap it. Because as soon as you do...someone is going to ask if you still have it for sale...DOH!
