Rare Books: What Are They Worth? @ Weston History & Culture Center

Location: Weston History & Culture Center 104 Weston Rd. Weston, CT

Did you inherit old books and wonder what they’re worth? 

Then join bookseller Edward Crafts at the Weston History & Culture Center in Weston, CT on Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 2pm for “Rare Books – What Are They Worth”. The lecture concludes with one-on-one valuations, only one book per family. 

Whether you are downsizing, moving, settling an estate or redecorating, you may want to find a new home for treasured books. Weston resident Edward Crafts tells you how to assess your books’ value, and explains your options: dealers, auctions, Internet sales or donation. Bring in a book for an on-the-spot valuation!
