Answer

Staff at the HHRC are not qualified to appraise the value of historic items, maps or books. You may utilize the web sites of the following organizations to find an appraiser in your area:  American Society of Appraisers, the International Society of Appraisers, the Appraisers Association of America, and the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of America.
