Books Are Not Considered Valuable Based On Age
Book collecting is probably even older than antique collecting, and it has generated its own rich literature, books about books and book collecting. Yet it does not enjoy the same prestige as antique collecting, and there are more misunderstandings about it than most other types of collecting. By general consent, most artefacts are considered as antiques if they are a century or more old. With books this is not the case. Age is not really a major issue when it comes to valuing a book, unless it dates back to the 15th century.
