Janet Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 We're not able to provide valuations here - we are a site for book lovers to talk about their likes and dislikes of books and authors. Your best bet is to find a local antiquarian book shop - or an auction site - and start there. Quote
brickharbor Posted July 17, 2013 Author Posted July 17, 2013 Ah ok, thank you! Just thought I'd ask on here as I cant find any of these books anywhere online! Quote
pontalba Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Try looking on ABE Booksellers site. They list books for sale from various vendors, small independent booksellers. If you search the name of the book on their site, it may be listed and give you a ballpark figure. I have to tell you, old books are not as valuable as one would hope. Quote
