So I found out today that I have in my possession a 1952, Scribers first edition copy of Hemingway's novel, The Old Man and the Sea. If you didn't know (I didn't either) it is worth roughly $1,000 dollars or more depending on it's condition. The copy I have currently had in my library for the past 2 years or so is in fair condition and it's missing the book jacket, but regardless I was stunned.
The thing is that it belongs to my old church's library, so I can't sell it. I was meaning to get it back to them eventually...
