banivechi Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Expensive. For a regular pages from some book or "Daily News" from that time it looks indecent of expensive. You can buy old books for 5000$/ton in East Europe... I'm not kidding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ætheling Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 18th century books aren't rare not by any stretch of the imagination, sure they're 'rarer' than 20th/19th century books but there's still a few million of them out there. Trust me we've got a few hundred 18th century books at work. 17th/16th century books are much scarcer but even they are what you could term as ubiquitous when you consider them in the context of books from the 15th century before the printing press of William Caxton took over. Books of this era and before were laboriously handwritten, mostly by clerics using secretarial non-round hands (i.e not fast) with quills. So other than Psalter books and a few vulgates anything else from this period you can forget it. Unless you're a museum or very wealthy. But 18th century (especially the back end of the century) should cause you few problems, unless it's a first edition. (Even then that is all based upon demand for the book, for example a first edition of, i dunno; pet squirrel breeding for amateurs published in 1730 will sell for peanuts compared to a first edition Robinson Crusoe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
