Antique - Early American Walnut Carved Bed

I've had this full size early American made solid walnut bed for over 30 years.  It has been the guest bed for most of that time.  A year ago, when I moved out of the Herd Wear Store property, I no longer needed it.

A very good friend, who is an appraiser on Antiques Road Show for antique furniture has valued it at between $7,500 and $13,000.  He is also sure it is American craftsmanship and late 1800 to early 1900's; most likely New England or possibly Pennsylvania.   

The only downside is that not everyone wants a "full" size bed.  It is old, solid and beautiful.  I do have a close to new mattress that could go with it if you want.
