Hello, I have found these two old books in the cellar. I don't have any idea what worth it is. Full title: "The Book of The Fair - An historical and descriptive presentation of the world's science, art, and industry, as viewed through the Columbian Exposition at Chicago in 1893" BY Hubert Howe Bancroft. Chicago and San Francisco The Bancroft Company, Publishers 1893 Copyright, 1893, by Hubert H. Bancroft Types and Press of the Blakely Printing Company, Chicago, Ill ______________________________________________________________________ Here you can find some pics. http://ubuntuone.com/p/15Uu/ I'am very thankful for any help and appraisals! Best greetings Phil

Hi Doowi,

Cool books!

Here are some links where rare book dealers are selling the both volumes in good condition for between $450 and $625.

THE BOOK OF THE FAIR: AN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE PRESENTATION OF THE WORLD'S SCIENCE, ART, AND INDUSTRY, AS VIEWED THROUGH THE COLUMBIAN EXPOSITION AT CHICAGO IN 1893. -- tomfolio.com

However, your copies are in pretty rough shape and here's a link to a similar book that sold for $12 dollars:

In poor condition, your "book of the fair" volumes are probably worth around $100-200 dollars.
