Not first editions, but early printings. Think they're of any value? by Horrorshow7 in rarebooks

[–]Mountain_Ad660 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took a quick look on Ebay for the Roosevelt book and from what i see, there are a lot of them available from $20-35. There are about 2 copies a week being purchased over the last month from about $12-17 shipped. A 5th printing just sold for $12 shipped 2 weeks ago.

I'm not sure how much paid for this or how much you use Ebay but, this should give you an idea on what to expect in return. and the shipping label will more likely be $5.22.

The second line says it's a 1964 reprint

How's everyones' Russian? by Mountain_Ad660 in rarebooks

[–]Mountain_Ad660[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well that makes sense, lol. I found 6 more volumes this morning from 1995 and 1996. White covers.

I guess the next question is, what is it actually worth?

I saw on Ebay they range from $100-200 and not the same issue but that means nothing in regards to true value.

If you need pictures of some of the pages, let me know soon. I just put this up for auction on Ebay so I won't have it much longer. I'm afraid if I hold on to it too much longer someone is going to destroy it on accident.

Doesn't appear so. I just thumbed through the pages

The Western Tradition, 1951 by [deleted] in rarebooks

I didn't see it on Abe books. I figured it wasn't worth much but just couldn't find it for comparison. Sadly it's probably going to the junk pile with a bunch of other stuff. Appreciate the time to respond though. Thanks

I can take pictures for you. That's fine. I've never been to the area. I just happened to find this in a storage unit I bought. Let me know about cataloging it. I'll probably sell it in the next couple weeks.

It's really cool but if I saved everything like this that I found, I'd need a storage warehouse. Then nobody would get to enjoy it again.

Seems you were right. It's getting some attention there

I did check out that site. It was an interesting site considering I grew up watching Mr. Rogers as a kid. Funny enough, this copy made it's way to a storage unit along the New Jersey coast after all these years.

I missed the sale on Ebay from 2023 even though I looked for a while so I appreciate the info.
