How much would these sell for? I was thinking maybe $80. They were printed in 1952. They are in very good condition set 44-54. Thank you in advance!

Sellers can price their items as high or low as they wish but they can only raise the price if there are no bids so I always suggest starting with a higher price and best offers considered to see how the market goes. If no bids after a few weeks then lower the price.
If your books are in really good condition, I would start the price at $100 w/offers considered - ship media mail.
Check your books condition against some of the sold books so you can see if your books are really in better shape than others.
Check for loose binding, wrinkled pages, writing, water marks, dirty pages, dirty ends, binds faded, etc as any of this should to be mentioned in your description.
You can check out eBay's sold listings to see what people are paying for some of these books. The majority of these books are sold 'piecemeal' as individual volumes as sold listings show but I did find one 'lot' of 11 mixed volumes that sold for $21.50. These look to be in good condition (but faded). This seller did not provide enough pictures nor a good description so check that out.

I also noticed a lot of 52 volumes that only sold for $109.54 plus shipping. This seller did a decent job with pictures but this price is low compared to other 'lots' this size.

These are worth very little. I hope you can get $80 for them. You can try and reduce the price accordingly.
No one wants old Encyclopedia or History books these days . You can find answers to any thing on a computer. You would be better off to donate them to a thrift shop and get a tax rebate.
