Does anyone know the value of this book? I have a couple copies of this book and am willing to sell one.

I think I saw one on ebay for 1000.00. Bottom line it's worth what someone else will pay. I would love to read the book but won't spend any where near that price for it as I don't collect books.

About $50 or $60 on up depending on condition, signed, etc.

This one on ABEbooks is listed as a first edition in near fine condition at $150.00.  Seems like a really good deal.

Several years back when I collected quite a few books on hunting turkeys they were in the $150 ish range. The market for rare turkey hunting books was pretty strong back then I'm not sure if it still is.

If you listed the book on eBay, it would probably sell for about $60 give or take $10.  I have sold a couple in that price range.

My father in law is an old time WV turkey hunter. He told me he really wanted another copy of this book after someone borrowed his and failed to return it. I was traveling in Idaho and stopped in a small town hunting store and they had 4 or 5 on the shelf and I bought them all. This was in 1998.

I just checked I paid 51 for the copy I bought on ebay.
