Q: Can you tell me the value of this copy of “Line Upon Line”? This is book number 27 in the series, in good condition. The attached photos show a good representation of its condition. Thank you for your time.

A: Your book is part of the Devotional Series. This series of moralistic and religious books was a long running series published between 1895 and 1933. During these years there were nine different formats published. Your book is format 7, published between 1901-1904. This format originally came in a labeled box. Interestingly several different paste-ons have been seen within the cover template. These variations are shown below.

Since your book is in poor shape and is a reprint, it has only nominal value.
