Q: Dear Expert! I have an old book “Gold Dust A Collection of Golden Counsels” that I received from my grandmother. It has a suede cover but no publishing date. Do you have any idea of it’s age? Thanks…Mary

A: Your book is part of the ten volume Gold Dust Series. (http://henryaltemus.com/series/series95.htm) This series of reprints was published between 1912 and 1918. This book originally all came in a labeled box.

Generally, these books have only nominal value.
