[QUOTE="Chris Roy, post: 4852638, member: 78899"]I really don't want to start a debate. You are allowed your opinion. Now let me tell you what I think... Why would they be worth less? Isn't it cool to have a book that's almost 100 years old and you know you are the very first person to read those pages? I don't care about the binding since all of those same books I found online are identical. Invest time and money? you can use a knife and easily separate each pages at the top, easy enough. I don't think that the fact it wasn't open has anything to do with being interesting or not. My dad had purchased this in an Estate Sale years ago. They could very well have preserved it and kept it that way for their collection. About overestimating the paper, I do not. But my experience is , whenever something is made in limited quantity (and there is a demand for it) it's always more valuable. That's my opinion.[/QUOTE]
