There is a nice used book store about 30 miles from me that has a really good selection of older books from the 19th century mostly from 1840 up.I noticed in the literature section several copies of "Paradise Lost" by John Milton by different publishes a few are really beautiful and feature many lithographs those are several hundred dollars.

There where two smaller sized copies from the 1870's that where in very good shape and right around a hundred.I thought about buying one of those copies but did not.The next time I am in the same area as that store I think I will pick one of the smaller copies up.I looked very closely at the books and they are defiantly from that time period you can tell by the paper quality and the how the print looks.
