Two of them when I Googled the image printed on the inside cover I got:
History of Glenbervie
The Fatherland of Burns by Geo. H. Kinnear (1895), But I guess there is some type of smaller sizes that they would print later on for students to carry around. They\'re still highly collectible.
The second book (see photos) I got this info from one of the photos: The image shows a page from an antique edition of the works of Robert Burns, featuring the famous introductory stanza often used as an epigraph for his collections: \"The simple Bard, unbroke by rules of art, / Pours forth the wild effusions of the heart...\"
Some of the AI research was saying that the two could be worth $70 to $130. I\'m just putting $50 each on them, and seeing if I get any nibbles. Definitely hit me up if you have any questions. It\'s so fickle with trying to find the information and everything, I\'d really just like to sell these as a lot, but hit me up! I\'m sure if you\'re looking this deep, you\'re probably a book expert.
