I have a first edition, 12th impression copy of The Fellowship of the Ring, a 1st edition, 9th impression of both The Two Towers and The Return of the King, all with maps still attached but no dust covers, and a 1977 edition of The Silmarillion by the Book Club Associates by Clawes and Sons. How much should I insure them for or are they worth much?

I have a Royal Favorite Sunday-School Bible Classes and Home Circle by Asa Hull and D.R. M'Anally, Jr. from St. Louis, published by the Advocate Publishing House, with Logan D. Damerson as the agent, and copyrighted in 1878 by Asa Hull. Does this book have any value?

I bought an old pool cue at a flea market that still has its original label 'Premier Line Custom Designed' with the Brunswick Crown. It is a three-piece cue, possibly intended as a jump cue, with two butts: one labeled 13-143 21oz 'Made in Taiwan Republic of China' and the other very short with an ivory look. It has brass fittings and comes in its original case. Could you help me find a source to determine its potential value as a collector's item?

I found a Dunhill lighter while going through my father's belongings. It doesn't have Dunhill branded on the bottom, unlike most lighters. Is it real, and did Dunhill ever make lighters without the bottom stamped? I want to sell it on eBay but need to verify its authenticity and estimate its value.

I have an old Solid Ivory walking stick/cane with no handle. My husband's mother bought it at auction 36 years ago. It has insets of arrow shapes, diamond shapes, and long thin rectangular shapes, with what looks like multi-colored stones and a dark-colored stone. The bottom has small chips, and many of the insets are missing, but there are no cracks or chips in the ivory. It is 34 1/2 inches long, weighs 13.5 ounces, and has dimensions of 7/8 inch on one end and 5/8 inch on the other. How can I find the value of this item?
