In Reply to: (Book) Homer's Odyssey with inscription dated 1885 posted by Lisa Auntroni on December 17, 192000 at 11:06:35:

: I have a copy of Homers Odyssey that has an inscription in it to Carrie Bryant dated 1885. It is a brown leather bound book translated by Alexander Pope, printed by the Hurst & Co. Publishers it also has Theodore Buckley in it. I also found a newspaper clipping in the book from the late 1800's possibly early 1900. Can anyone give me an idea of the value of this book??

Most likely you would be looking at maybe $50. Not many people deal in books, and there are more out there than you would think, infact most books that are newer than the 1700's are cheaper to buy than a new copy, case in point I recently acquired three of shakespeare's plays from 1886 for $10. If you are looking to make a profit you won't find one, best thing you could do would be to give it to a member of your family or to a museum/library.
