With just a few minutes to hunt through the bins at the Goodwill Outlet in Indy (while my husband waited in the car) I managed to find a few treasures, including a few books from the late 1800s and some from the early part of the 1900s. I found one older book peeking through a large pile…and then kept digging and found several others. When I got home I looked up a few of them to get a sense of value. So far I think the Scarlet Letter is my winner…with similar versions (i.e., of the second printing) retailing between $400 and $800. I think it is a beautiful edition, so I’m keeping it, but it just goes to show that it can really pay off to do a little digging through the bin.
