A hypothetical question for book lovers
Hypothetically speaking, if I wanted to sell these, what would they be worth?
-Complete works of Charles Dickens, 19 volumes, published by Books Inc, NY, 1936
19 volumes, hard bound and plastic covered, very good condition
(Typeset, nickeltyped, printed and bound by The colonial Press, Clinton, Massachusetts)
-Charles Dickens, His life and work, Stephen Leacock, Doubleday Dean and Company, 1936
-Charles Dickens, The last of the great men, GK Chesterton, The Press of the Readers Club, NY, 1942, autographed by the editorial Committee, 1942
-Dickens, Andre Mourot, 1935 (considered to be one of the better biographies)
-Charles Dickens, His tragedy and triumph, Vol 1 and vol II, Edgar Johnson, Simon and Shuster, 1952
-Charles Dickens, A biography from new sources, Ralph Strauss, Grossett and Dunlap, 1928
-Introducing Charles Dickens, Mary Lamberton Becker, Dodd, Mead and Company, 1940
(Some of these books have dedications of possible interest to historians, present notes from givers/owners)
-Mark Twain, Complete works, 5 volumes, Book-of-the-Month Club, 1992
If anyone knows someone at Sotheby's or can give me a general idea, would appreciate it.

As a good communist, you better donate them to your school

Actually, that's an option I thought about, but I would give them to my old high school in Zimbabwe or my university in SA.
