The best place to check the price and availability of used books is addall.com This website summarizes all the bookseller sites. Only one Greener The Gun... (1881 1st ed.) available for $458, so it is extremely rare. I have the 1884 2nd ed. worth $150 to $250 depending on condition. Plus everyone needs the 1909 ed. @ $10 as a reading copy. EDM

I also have a 1st edition of The Gun and its Development, however both hard covers and the rear binding need to be glued back on. All of the pages are there. Where would be a good place to sell the book? How about Ebay?
