How much do you charge for appraising two books: 'Selections from Goldsmith's Deserted Village', illustrated by Wedworth Wadsworth, published by The Art Lith. Publ. Co. in Munich and New York, printed in Germany, No.2096, with no publication date; and a paper booklet titled 'Everyone knows his FIRST name' from 1942, published by Levi Strauss and Company, San Francisco, with approximately 25 pages of Gold Rush era stories?

I have 5 dinner plates by Ovington Brothers with a stamp on the back that says 'Ovington Brothers, Made in England' and within the makers mark is the word 'Mintons'. The pattern looks somewhat Asian, with pink rim, teal floral vines, and large flowers in the center. I'm looking for the name of the pattern, its value, and any backstory on the relationship between the Ovington Brothers and Mintons.

I have 11 volumes of the pictorial edition of the works of Shakespeare edited by Charles Knight. They are hardback volumes that I received from my mother-in-law 45 years ago. Are they worth anything?
