Answer 2

If the book is in good condition and is a first printing first edition you might want to try several different rare booksellers either online or in person. Don't take any first offers though. You can also try the Sothbey's and Christie's auction house websites. They have every type of concievable expert for what you are looking for. As a last resort you might post your question on the website of the Library of Congress the largest library in the world at: loc.gov. Hope you find what you are looking for and it works for you.
