Title: antique books
Post by: booklover5196 on May 18, 2003, 01:44:18 PM

I bought an antique book from a yard sale. It had no copyright date in it but there was an inscription that says Miss Josie Saginaw City Mich. Jan. 2, 1889. The book is called Tom Brown's School Days By An Old Boy (Thomas Hughes). Was it actually made in 1889 or is it older than that? Also is it worth anything? ^_^  <_<
