Rare Book????

[queenie]

I came across a book titled "Apollo/Saturn V Roll of Honor by The Boeing Company 1970, and I cannot find out much about it. The inside of the cover has a paper that states that this copy is #255 of 1817, and I found out that the Library of Congress in Washington has the first copy in their rare book section. I also found a reference on one website that states that it's a rare book, but is there anywhere else I can find out the value of it? I have tried every rare book site that I can find, but no luck. I would like to sell it, but don't quite know how or where to list it. Any suggestions??

eBay. If it's too esoteric someone may get away with winning it very cheap though. Look through the auctions first and see if there's anything similar and what it's going for. Or open your local Yellow Pages and find some antique book dealers.

It's such a specialized book, it can be hard to find exactly the right buyer who would be enthusiastic enough to pay a high price. Some people might be willing to buy it just because it's cool, but you want to reach out to the real aficionado. Some space exploration buffs can be quite fanatical about collecting these kinds of things (in a good way, I mean), though finding them may take some creativity.

It's true that some of them may have standing searches on e-bay to catch things like this. You might also see if there are forums for collectors on this subject. Good luck.
