Q: Hello, I have found three books that my great great grandfather must have dated 1898 and I am wondering if they have any value. I have attached the cover same for all three.
1. “Sator Restartus” by Thomas Carlyle
2. “Mulvaney Stories” by Rudyard Kipling
3. Poems by Oliver Wendell Holmes
thanks for any info you have!
A: Your books are part of the Sanspareil Series. They were published in 1898 and originally had dust jackets. See below for an example.
All of the titles in this series are reprints.
Since none of your books have very desirable/collectible titles, they only have nominal value.
