By ELIZABETH TOOMEY Uniied Press Correspondent New York (U.R) As each gen eration goes by, American fami lies become more ardent collec tors of ancestral bricabrac. The old family antiques may include a few eyesores, like the painting of the late great aunt Agatha. But they also include some works of art, which more and more people are realizing they should protect: Even' aunt: Agatha's likeness could turn out to be the work of an early ., American primitive painter with a value far more than the frame and the canvas. Because of these objects accu mulating in attics and basements American insurance companies provide something called "fine arts insurance." Fifty years ago only museums and art dealers could get such insurance. Now homeowners can take out poli cies, providing their heirlooms meet certain requirements. "The standard fire insurance policy does not cover the value of an object beyond its utility," Alfred F. Bruns, vice-president of the Liberty Mutual Insurance company, explained. "A fine arts policy insures antiques and works of art for their actual mar ket value regardless of utility." Sentimental attachment does not count in antique appraisals. You might tell anybody who would listen that "I wouldn't take $10,000 for this tea pot that belonged to grandma," but if it doesn't appeal to collectors, you'll never be able to insure it for S10.000. "The item must be a rarity or have historical value," Bruns explained. "Under this group come objects which may be both useless and ugly. An antique stamp is of no use in mailing a letter, for instance, but it can be worth a fortune if it's the only one of its kind."
