Once more appealing to the extrordinary resource that is Mudcatdom Assembled!

An acquaintance of mine from one of the country jam sessions I occasionally visit is interested in selling his collection of songbooks. I'm told they're all in very good condition. Some are relatively new and of no particular 'collector' value. I suspect some, however, may have considerable value.

'Twould be appreciated if anyone has any knowledge or observations, please share them.
