Does anyone have any knowledge of old books?

I have one of these but it is not signed it is Lithographs... Same book except for the front cover... Everything else is the same though... Any idea were I get a relative value for this thing? Any suggestions appreciated!

Can't tell you where to get it appraised..
but Wow, that's awesome!


Do you have any antique dealers in your area? They may be able to point you in a direction.

use google with "what's it worth" in the search..... priceminer.com is the first response. just scroll through google's finds until you find the right one.
use as many item specific words as you can to narrow your search.

If I were wealthy I would buy it. It is a most impressive possession. You have a great and timeless work of art and History there. Are you sure you want to part with it.

I almost feel bad owning it.  I bought a house around five six years ago and that and an original RC Gorman pastel was left behind... They were both in the storage space above the garage and the person who sold the house was deceased... I couldn't find any family members of the original owner... Plus they left all kinds of furniture...

I tied one of those antique book store but the guy who owned it had absolutly no clue as to the value(if there even is any).

goldwanger... I like it but I only bring it out once in a while to show people and someone who is really into that stuff might get more enjoyment from it.  

Thanks all!!


Remember mine is not signed by the artist but is exactly the same minus the cover art... so the value probably isn't what that one on sleazebay is...
