<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pat P, post: 67616, member: 201&quot;]Sorry for the delay in my getting back to the thread... had a system problem shortly after my last post.</p><p><br /></p><p>If the binding on your copy is truly unique, it&#039;s possible it was rebound, which could possibly negatively impact its value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Using vialibri.net, I found 18 copies published in 1882 by Houghton Mifflin. The two highest priced copies were a special edition in a vellum dust wrapper, which is why they are priced so high. The next highest-priced copy is bound in full leather and in very good condtion. Eliminating those three highest-priced books leaves 15 copies, ranging in asking price from $8 to $125.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.vialibri.net/cgi-bin/book_search.php?refer=resort&amp;curr=USD&amp;id=55a2af86d69a1&amp;sortfield=15&amp;sort_val=hi&amp;pricemin=&amp;pricemax=&amp;yearmin=1882&amp;yearmax=1882&amp;fed=&amp;sgd=&amp;dj=&amp;iter=2&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=pr&amp;start=0&amp;conv=1&amp;ekey=rare&amp;act=sort&amp;count=19&amp;sv=fHx0aGUgcG9lbXMgb2YgdGhvbWFzIGJhaWxleSBhbGRyaWNofGhvdWdodG9uIG1pZmZsaW58fHw=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.vialibri.net/cgi-bin/book_search.php?refer=resort&amp;curr=USD&amp;id=55a2af86d69a1&amp;sortfield=15&amp;sort_val=hi&amp;pricemin=&amp;pricemax=&amp;yearmin=1882&amp;yearmax=1882&amp;fed=&amp;sgd=&amp;dj=&amp;iter=2&amp;order=asc&amp;sort=pr&amp;start=0&amp;conv=1&amp;ekey=rare&amp;act=sort&amp;count=19&amp;sv=fHx0aGUgcG9lbXMgb2YgdGhvbWFzIGJhaWxleSBhbGRyaWNofGhvdWdodG9uIG1pZmZsaW58fHw=" rel="nofollow">This link </a>will take you to the 15 copies (I removed the three highest priced books from the list). If you compare the condition and features of your book with what&#039;s noted for each copy, you may be able to get a rough idea of how to price your book.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
