Value of 1937 Encyclopaedia Britannica?

I am looking to sell a limited sssue of the 14th edition of the Britannica. This was published in celebration of the Coronation of His Majesty King George VI, dated 1937.

It is in perfect condition - I don't believe some of the books have ever been opened! It's in a lovely walnut book case, with a glass front. Any help on pricing this would be appreciated.

Many people have old books they think are valuable and would like to sell. Most old dictionaries, references etc., have very little value-a few dollars at most. Encyclopedias dated after 1923 are essentially worthless but crafters may be interested for the old pictures. Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc., receive donations of tons of old encyclopedias but send them to recycling centers or dumps as they cannot use or sell them.

You can check online for old book collectors, on EBay, Craigslist and other retail sites for possibilities. Everything is now online and updated constantly so old books are just that-old.
