Appraisal Report
This is an antique hardcover book, "Travels With a Donkey and an Inland Voyage" by Robert Louis Stevenson, published in 1914 by The Macmillan Company. Factors affecting value include: * **Age and Rarity:** Being over 100 years old, the book has antique value. * **Author Popularity:** Robert Louis Stevenson is a well-known author. * **Condition:** The condition of the book is a significant factor. Based on the image, the book appears to be in fair condition. Specific appraisal would require examination of the binding, pages for foxing or damage, and overall wear and tear. * **Edition:** While a 1914 edition, it is not a first edition which would command a much higher value. * **Market Demand:** The demand for this specific edition and condition is moderate. Considering these factors, the value is primarily driven by its age and author. However, without a detailed condition report and knowing the specific edition details beyond the publication year, a precise appraisal is difficult. The current price of $7.50 seems very low and likely reflects an auction starting bid rather than true value. In fair condition, similar copies of reprints from this era tend to sell for modest amounts to collectors interested in binding and age, but not necessarily high points of rarity.
