Re: Discussions of preservation / restoration / replication in L&RP

Speaking of Passenger Cars, Richard -

There's a great write-up in my volume three of L&RP (signed by Mark Smith at the CSRM symposium in May, '93) starting on page 30 of the January-February issue that chronicles John Bush's exquisite restoration of ex-DN&P / D&RGW business car Marcia in Craig, Colorado during 1987-89.  I'm looking forward to seeing the period cars being restored to run with D&RG(W) #168, which I expect will exhibit a similar high degree of craftmanship – as will the engine herself, of course.

p.s.  I'm not getting any younger, and am nearing the time when my small but varied collection of books and models - mostly related to western steam and/or narrow gauge - needs a new home.  Can anyone give me a rough estimate of what the three-volume L&RP set, in pretty good condition, might be worth?   (SFAIK, copies of the subsequent few individual issues of L&RP that were published after the third bound volume was released are still somewhere in my closet and would also be available.)
