I have about 6 hardcover books that are all between 100 and 120 years old. they are not sighned, and are in medium condition other than just growing yellow with age. none are special copies, but there is an early works of Emily Dickinson in there. around how much would these all be worth?

Talk to the antique stores or the auctionier. It should be worth quite a lot.

relies upon on the books, of path. some books are "first version" and in "stable concern." and a few are on matters infrequently got here across, or infamous, etc. yet then, how lots would a e book it truly is valueless trash at present going to be properly worth in a hundred years?

I'm no expert, but it depends on who they're by. But the Emily Dickinson might be worth something.

The value of something is what people will pay for it. You can search ebay to see what similar books are selling for. I did with similar books and found them to be going for $6-7 each.

Sometimes they are worth quite a bit, sometimes, nothing at all. I have a french Fashion hardback fashion magazine that is one hundred forty years old, and it's nearly worthless.

You would be surprised that even century-old books are often worthless. If there is an antiquarian bookstore in your town, they can be of better advice.
