At one time, I use to collect old Civil War books. I had quite a few books worth well over $100 each some 25 years ago. My main store was a store that specialized in old collectable books. They had a water pipe burst which flooded the store, ruining a large number of books. The store never reopened. Lord knows how much money they lost in that flood.
