Yesterday I was in a antique store. As I browse through bunches of books, I was shocked to see there's few books that was over 50 years old. I'm wondering if anyone know anything about following:
The Arabian Night
Published by "Modern Library"
It say "copyright 1932" It was reworded or something by Cerf bennette.
and
The Seven Pillars of Wisdom
by T.E. Lawrence
I'm not too sure of the publisher or publish year, but I believe it is published by Doran New York time or something. The year, I would have to say 1927.
The antqiue store is selling first one for $10 the second one for $22. both are in almost mint condition.
So... Is the antqiue store dumb enough to make a such mistake and assume those books are worthless or what? I recently got "The Arabian Night" with illustrator by Parrish Maxfield that cost me $100 and is said to be worth about 200 to 250.
Hope someone can help me out with this. Thank you.
