I have a set of 1911 United Editors Perpetual Encyclopedia 40 volumes (I am missing 1 volume). All 39 volumes are in excellent condition. Are they worth anything? I hate to just throw them out.

I cannot find out very much about this set except that it is available as an E book free to download.
There were a couple of volumes listed individually on Amazon and seller was asking $25 each so that may be a way to go but may be a long slow process.

I can only suggest you try listing it for sale at whatever price you feel it's worth - maybe even a high price if the books are in good condition - start at $250 plus shipping or will consider best offer and also available for local pick up.
All books can be worth something but it all depends on what people are willing to pay for them. A lot of people can now download free PDF files of these older books and have them stored on their computer to make it easier to read and look things up in them. A lot of people right now are trying hard to downsize their homes and get rid of a lot of things like this. You can try first off to speak to an antique bookseller in your area and see if they are willing to take the books and sell them for you. An auction house is yet another good place to sell off books like this.
