    I'm still so excited from our video appraisal last week on the books I bought at an estate sale. I spent $50 on eleven books, you reviewed 3 of them at a total of $900! I am slowly working on writing about the books to sell online. I now feel so confident on my prices. Thank you, your $49 video chats are worth every penny!

    YES! I have a Bible about the size you are holding, about 10”x12“ and 4” deep. Leather cover and gilded pages - I think that’s what you call it. It’s beautiful and in great condition. I would never get rid of it but always curious on the worth. Looking forward to your video! I hope to catch it live! Thanks!

      WOW 😯!
      Dr Lori I had no idea it did damage that far away but then again I had no power for days and towers were down so I lost using my cell phone. Couldn’t go on line so I was missing all the news for almost 2 weeks. By the time I could get back on line and had power the hurricane was old news so to speak accept for local news that was still covering damages. I was trapped in my neighborhood due to flood waters from a lake. It had rained 20 inches of rain in less than 24 hours. We also lost use of the 3 Mile bridge from 10 barges that broke loose from the bridge and they rammed into the new bridge being built and eventually the barges were blown up to the shore lines and on land.
      The news had been telling us that the storm was not coming here so everyone went to sleep only to find out the storm took a hard right turn right before land fall and headed for us as a direct hit at a cat 2. I had layed awake until 2 am listening to the winds and suddenly jumped up when it sounded like the windows were going to blow out and then the power went off. I realized that the hurricane must have shifted in opposite direction which is rare -and headed for my safe room where I keep my collectibles! Ha ha Still in boxes from just moving 2 months prior to new house.
      Well I had my new privacy fence completed yesterday and patio rebuilt. Everything is good now Dr Lori. Just in time for Thanksgiving Dr Lori and no family but you on line so I’ll be watching. Hope you didn’t loose to many trees. See you soon -tootles! :) and don’t forget we are waiting story about Kermit!

    Wonderful information Dr laurie, enjoyable and educational. One question, when I find an old 19th century textbook (school reader, math, writing, etc.) and it has several pages where there is original student writing, does that affect the grade greatly or actually enhance it in some way? Usually easy to spot because they wrote much nicer cursive and got their knuckles cracked if they didn't.

Then next was the White House cookbook, you only said it would cost about $250 but didn’t say if it would have much of a value increase so just was wondering if the same would apply or because being the type of book it is that it would increase dramatically. Sorry for the questions just trying to learn when it would be worth having a book rebound other than for the “grandmas favorite” books.
