How much do you think this is worth?

[ACP]

My Dad works in home health care and visits many patients daily. He usually develops a close frienship with many of them and recently, one elderly man gave my Dad a gift - an authentic Sears & Roebuck Fall 1900 catalogue. It is in great condition, none of the pages are dog-eared. The catalogue, which is no bigger than a Reader's Digest, was his father's and since he had no son he decided to give it to my Dad. I thought that was really nice of him to do. Anyway, my Dad said he'd give it to me someday. That thing is already over 100 years old! I'm sure so many years from now a couple of people out there are gonna be willing to pay top dollar for something like that...or am I just being too optimistic?

I looked on EBay, and I could only find reprints. I guess that you could see if there are any antique appraisers in town and see what they say. You never know

it's worth whatever anyone would pay, which probably isn't much. i wish for you it is worth something but i just don't think it would be. how much is a confederate dollar worth? (next to nothing)

If you go the Sotheby's.com, they do estimates at no charge. Who knows?

I think it might be valuable for the following reasons:
-It is in good condition, esp for its age.
-Sears and Roebuck played an important role in American commercial history, esp in changing the way goods were marketed and sold, I watched a video on it in US history in high school.

I'll start the bidding at 75 dollars...seriously.

I'd sell it before Wal-Mart takes over the world and puts Sears out of business ;)
