[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 286359, member: 56"]There might be some interest in the Croiset. A copy is currently listed on Abebooks for about $50. No idea if that's just wishful thinking. There may be some interest in the Hubners Lexicon. A different and much earlier Lexicon is listed on AbeBooks for $200. Yours is religious (and probably a later edition) but the other (I think) is not. Being a religious book won't help, but the frontis engraving will help if it is in decent condition (looks stained). People will make allowances for the condition of old books, but it's still very much a consideration. Books on religion survive more than others because people think it disrespectful to toss them.[/QUOTE]
