I was wondering if you could tell me the worth of a 1895 edition of The Complete Poems of Edgar Allan Poe?

Sorry, Amanda, but late 19th century editions of Poe's works, especially the poetry, are fairly common. In general, a really nice one, in fine condition, is worth under $100. (Remember that Poe had been dead for about 45 years by 1895.

Yes, but most of Poe's work didn't become famous until after he died. It would mean more to me to have the book. If you want to sell e-mail me.
