What is ballpark value of a 1924 Webster's New International Dictionary with Reference History? This is a single large volume in very good condition with no visible wear on the cover. The binding & pages are also in very good condition. Overall it appears to have been very well cared for.

On eBay this book's asking price ranges from $20 to $207. These do look as nice as yours. This is a collectable book, with the right buyer. You could try auction/bid or private sale!
Thank you for your response. I was trying to decide whether to go ahead and repair / restore the dedicated book stand that my grandfather had apparently made for it and put it on display. It is not a lightweight volume in any sense.
There worth about 25.00 on E-Bay.
Due to the present world situation it would be impossible for anyone to quote you a current value but perhaps when the world returns to a better financial state you could consider listing it for a good price.
Your book appears to be in good condition but we are only seeing one picture.
It seems there were several 1924 editions produced so be sure when doing research you are looking at the same edition/cover.
This is a revised edition and does not seem to be a real 'sought after' edition but if it is in very good condition then it may still be desirable.
If you decide to try selling it I would suggest posting it on local venues like Craigslist, OfferUp, Letgo, Facebook Marketplace or even eBay.
I would start the price high - even $200 + - but consider lowing the price if no one shows an interest.
Shipping will not be expensive as it can be shipped by USPS Media Mail or list it as local pick up.
A good listing has to have several very pictures of the front, back, spine, leaves, and several of inside pages, especially the index page and also any damages. A good description is also necessary as only a true collector will pay good money for a book.

Thank you for your detailed helpful comment. If I were to decide to sell it at a later time I would definitely want to provide more images. This is, in addition to being a comprehensive dictionary, partly encyclopedia as well. It is also in very good overall condition.
At this time I have gone ahead and begun restoring the dedicated book stand to display it in our home.
