[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 1493478, member: 25"]18th C. and earlier medical and science books sell quite well with less fuss about condition, because they interest many modern readers with a yen for the history of science (or 'Natural Philosophy', as it was then) Religious books are usually dead in the water after 1700, but 17th C. texts can do well notably in the USA. There is not much 19th C. general stuff that anyone wants, excluding first editions of 'great works', etc. The 20th C., more so, this is when you need to know the notable exceptions, the strange world of 'Modern First Editions'[/QUOTE]
