Afternoon all,
I've just been given a book by a relative and asked to use the power of the googlewebs to find out if it's worth anything. Google reveals very little, except that the book is from a set of 5, with a complete set being worth well into the thousands of pounds. This book is very tatty and not in a complete set.
My question therefore - should I take it to an antique bookseller and ask him/her to value or will I get a) laughed at as the condition of the cover is very poor, or b) told it's worth nothing as they want to buy it from me?
