Selling advice ... old army manual
 
In cleaning out our basement, Mrs. Dallas located a copy of Department of the Army Technical Manual TM 9-2700, Principles of Automotive Vehicles from 1947. (How this came to be in our possession I can't imagine--I can only assume it's something my father-in-law had, but even so I don't see why Mrs. Dallas would have bothered to take it.)

Anyway, does anybody have suggestions for where we might offer this for sale and get a decent price for it? I'm under no illusion that this will fund my retirement, or even my next phone bill :D but a few copies have sold for $3 to $5 on Fleabay, and I suspect it might be worth slightly more than that to a collector of military or antique car memorabilia. A Google search reveals folks offering it for sale for $40-$60, but it's not clear they're actually selling it at that price!

Reminds me of this place. Don't know if this is of any use to you. I've purchased some interesting stuff there.

Ooo just the kind of place I was hoping to find. (Though it doesn't look like they're eager to buy except in person.) Still, I'll drop them an email. Thanks.
