When I told her that I searched for an old book and found that
it was valuable. She then showed me a couple of old books that she have. She was from Germany so, the books came from there. She told me, she got the books from her neighbour. They wanted to burn books, as their Aunt passed away. So she took three books.
Jahrbuch der Berliner Morgen-Zeitung. Kalender für das Jahr 1908
This is like a year book. A calender. With advertisements at the back pages.
My mother said at that time there were no magazines or newspapers, so this is the way they advertise or telling the news.
Vom Tabor bis Golgatha, 1888[von C. Wagner-Groben]
This book is about religion.
Griebens Reisefuhrer Band 2, HARZ 1904-1905
This is like a guide book. With maps and where to eat and stay.
Unfortunately we will not be the next milionaire... Hehe.. I search the prices in http://www.abebooks.com and found out the highest price for 2 first books above were 17 US Dollar, the last one is about the same.
There are so many other books in Deutsch also but I am not a good German reader, maybe one day I will learn to read it by myself.
