This small 4 inch book, "Big Chief Wahoo and the Magic Lamp" was my Dad's when he was a young boy. It is approx 70 years old. It is missing it's cover and some of the pages are a little worn and yellowed with age. Wondering if the book would be worth anything? Thanks!
Sorry to burst your bubble cause I'm sure it's valuable to you but on the following web site they only go for about $35.00 in good condition with the covers. Nice memory. Here is the site that only took a few seconds to find..: http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?kn=big+chief+wahoo+and+the+magic+lamp&sts=t&x=60&y=19
Thank you Pop_abides for the information... I found a copy on Etsy's that was in alot better condition than mine for $14... my bubble is burst... it was exciting coming across the book when we moved recently and the memories... thanks again!
the value of the book could easily be found for a much higher price if there happens to be a decline in the population of existing copies. hold onto it and wrap it in acid free paper/store in a cool dark dry place-once the pages are brittle there is no restoring them.
