[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 747797, member: 8267"]Do you mean Frederic Remington's "Done in the Open"? You do not provide sufficient information for us to assess whether it is valuable enough to bother with repairing. What is the publication date? Is there anything inherently valuable about this particular edition? Because there are lots of copies of various versions available. We generally do not "break" a book if it is complete and repairable, but if it cannot be repaired to "collectible" condition it might be an exception. If there are undamaged copies readily available, there is little reason for someone to buy a repaired copy.[/QUOTE]
