I have the original book; 'The Alphabet by Fredric W. Goudy - 1918' Published; (New York - Mitchell Kennerley - MCMXXII).

Fredric W. Goudy was responsible for developing many well known fonts we use today and was a real pioneer, if not the first.

My book is in absolutely amazing condition, superbly preserved. How can I find out how much my book is worth and where can I sell it???

Please contact me if you can help. Perhaps it should be in a museum.
