I am trying to get a sense of the market and value for this guide. Nothing come up in an eBay search. It is covered by worthpoint but I do not have a subscription. A google searched revealed one sale on eBay UK for well over $1600, but the pictures do not come up.
Wow, this looks to be a great find. From what some of the others are saying, this copy was reproduced in 1944 by the US government for the invasion of Normandy.
Where did you find it? Any association to a WWII veteran? Worthpoint can be taken with a grain of salt, but this definitely merits further study. I hope it is the great find it appears to be!
Thanks for all the help. I must have priced it too low. Listed it on ebay as Buy It Now for $2499 yesterday. Overnight I received a number of offers that I wasn't aware of because I was asleep, plus a payment from someone who decided to pay the asking price. A pleasant surprise this morning, to say the least. I suppose there's a lesson here about pricing things on ebay, but I am happy despite not receiving top dollar.
Nice score! I just sold an unsmoked GBD pipe from the 70s for $175.00 within 40 minutes of listing it. The pipe expert I talked to said it would sell for about $40. Looks like a used one could sell for the price I listed the unsmoked. We live and learn! But you can't beat a lesson where you get the $$ you asked for! Congrats again!
