Winston's Encyclopedias around 1918 are listed on Abe's Books for $2.99 each book. You can search Abe's Books, EBay, Craig's List, etc. for other possibilities.

Your books may have some value, allthough it appears the values are very low. Abe Books has them for about $2.50 per book. You can research further on the net or the site below.
