London Becomes Europe's Largest Stock...
News0 min ago
I have a full set of American encyclopedias from the 1950s which were brought to the UK from the US by a relative in the (approx) 70s.
I have done a bit of googling about them, but can anyone advise of a way to find if they might be worth anything?
Thanks.

Might be worth looking on ebay or thesaleroom.com for comparable prices.
I've got a whole set of 1877 Encyclopedia Brittanica and about half the set of the next edition (I think there are about 60 volumes). A dealer offered £120 for the lot about 20 years ago and I am convinced they are worth more, but typically never got round to doing anything about it.

If you are not bothered about getting money for them perhaps your local Oxfam Bookshop will take them off your hands.
Old books are necessarily worth a lot of money, but it is always worth checking.
Barmaid - is this the set that you have? https:/
It will give you an indication of value.
