Came Across This Old Sears Plumbing Book In My Grandpa's Stuff


we're cleaning out my grandpa's farm after moving him closer to my parents', anyway, found this old book entitled:
Standard American Plumbing
Hot Air, Hot Water, Steam Heating and Gas Fitting.


pretty neat little book, the last printing date listed in the cover was 1923! I don't know if anybody here is interested in buying it, or if i should keep it on the shelf for future generations?

Very cool book! If you don't keep it, maybe e-bay would be the place to get a decent price.
