Well, I just gave my wife a pretty spiffy little book

[thewayne]

The spine just has two lines: Poems, and E.A. Poe.

It has all sorts of little clippings and such related to Edgar Allen, and it was printed in 1895. Might be worth a couple of bucks, but I'm not sure where to look for its value. Any suggestions?

A bit later...

I just confirmed that it's part of the Petit Trianon series of 1895-1896! Someone or some many have created a memorial(?) site to the Henry Altemus Company that is quite impressive and comprehensive, very neat stuff there.

Amazing what you can find clearing out a storage locker - this is why I'm opening every single box! It looks like it's probably not worth very much, but it has an exceptional cool factor.

You might try the advanced search at used.addall.com The site checks lots of sites worldwide, so there's some duplication. Still, if someone is selling the same thing online (with title, author, & publisher) that will give you an idea.

I will check it out, thanks!
