I have 27 encyclopedias that are a set of Funk and Wagnalls, New Encyclopedia. They have a copyright date of MCMLXXIV (1979). They are in great condition considering their age, little wear on them. I'm running out of shelf space so I was wondering what they are worth?

I have a 1931 Funk and Wagnall's Encyclopedia Britannica, 25 volume set, in very small print. I would say the books are in very good to excellent condition. Can you please give me an estimate of the value (if there is any).

I have a full set of Funk and Wagnalls encyclopedias (publishing dates 1931 - 1964). They are in awesome shape. Very little, if any, damage/aging. I'm wondering what they are worth. I know that they aren't in demand since the internet, but I also know that they aren't easy to find anymore. I have all 25, and they are in better shape than the one pictured here.

I have a 25 volume (complete) set of 1931-34 Funk and Wagnalls Encyclopedia of Universal Knowledge in excellent condition. Aside from seeing how funny our "facts" were back then, do you know its range of value?
