[QUOTE="Pat P, post: 61766, member: 201"]What a nice find! Looking quickly at auction results by googling, results have been mixed... [URL='https://www.google.com/search?q=%22sister+anne%22+%22beatrix+potter%22+auction&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8']https://www.google.com/search?q="sister+anne"+"beatrix+potter"+auction&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8[/URL] I've been wondering whether I should have some older books of mine professionally restored. From what I can tell, it's a gamble. If a restored book sells, it will probably sell for significantly more than unrestored... but there's no guarantee it will sell. I wouldn't try doing repairs yourself, though, without expert guidance. It could actually devalue the book if not done in an "accepted" fashion.[/QUOTE]
