Can anyone in Wilmington NC look at a set of sails for me???

I have a lead on a set of used "new" sails in Wilmington NC.

Owner doesn't have pics, or much info so before I drive 4+ hours down there I was hoping I could find someone to eyeball to see if they are NEW or NEW in 1973.......Don't need to make final judgement for me. Just tell me if it is worth driving down to look at.

Be happy to pay for some time and gas cost as well.

Ric,
Suggestion that has worked for me...there is bound to be a sailmaker close by...have the seller take them there for an appraisal...you pay...wouldn't run more than a few bucks....
