> xii. McGendies Phrenology [the “science” of skull
> bumps] 10 cents
This one could be worth something for collectors of oddities. It is an interesting sideline in history.
> xv. Pope’s Works, 7 volumes, $1.50
> xvi. Locke’s Essay, $1.00 (no doubt a political treatise)
> xvii. Marshall’s Life of Washington, 5 volumes and map,
> $2.50
Depending on what printing they are, could be worth good money.
> xxi. 1 Large Family Bible, $2.00
These can be worth thousands now.
