And so that you can draw your own conclusions, here is the seller's equally courteous and polite response:

Thanks for you email Kylie, As you can see from the bidding several collectors have interest in these pieces. Some may be looking to add these unusual pieces to their own collection. I was glad that an Internet search turned up their father's Civil War connection. He must have been proud to have his daughters achieve a high degree of education around the turn of that century. I have to be fair to all so I must continue the auction. If you are not the high bidder on these pieces I can certainly pass your Ebay name onto the winning bidder. I am sure they will be glad to contribute information, photos, etc. of scarce or unusual pieces from their own collection to assist you in keeping the history of Kappa Kappa Gamma alive and open to all of those interested in the wonderful achievements of that fine organization. Best of luck, Brian from Estateauction
