I have a book that contains 98 first day covers, dated from 1934 to 1937. What sort of value do these typically have? Any special ones to look for? I saw some from Hawaii and the Phillipines in there.

They are in an ebay auction I am running now for a big lot of stamps, but I didn't even take a picture of this one book. Didn't know what it was...

    I tried to sell abunch of these recently on eBay. You can look up the prices in the Brookman, but all I ever got was about 25% except for the Zepplines. They sold for about 85% of book. Do you have any Zepplins?

    It depends on condition, cachet, issue etc. There are some decent FDC's from the 30's with decent value. I think Scott still issues the "US First Day Cover Catalogue & Checklist. It gives info on values, cachet makers etc. You could always put some scans up of some you think might have some value.

    You maybe able to cross collect for selling also. Do you have the Baseball Cooperstown? A baseball
    entusiast or baseball card collector maybe interested.
