Hi Birdie, I came across you on this site by searching for a price of the 1915 reprint of the economy cookbook, imperial sugar. I am visitingg my friend here in Texas and we are trying to sort out all the antique things she's had in boxes for years and try to sell and find values for all this. She has a number of the imperial sugar books from Sugarland, Texas. She lives pretty close to there. I was wondering if you may, perhaps, be kind enough to share some advice as where to find values and sell some of these things. Any information would be greatly appreciated, You seem to have an interest in things she has so I thought you may be able to enlighten us. I just signed up for this site and hope that this question is acceptable. Thanks SO much, JOSA

He buys and sells ; Antiques, Collectibles / Auctions. I will be right back with that link and post it below. Good Luck,,., hope this helps,.,.
Hi Birdie, Boy, the weather was great in Texas. Got home to Iowa and it was cold! I cannot find the link. Did you send it yet? Thanks!
