I have been fortunate in finding the folowing book.
Captain Cook's Artists in the Pacific 1769-1779.Publisher: New Zealand Avon Fine Prints Ltd. 1969; COOK, Captain [James]. [MURRAY-OLIVER, Anthony, compiler]. Captain Cook's Artists in the Pacific 1769-1779. New Zealand: Avon Fine Prints Ltd., 1969. First edition, limited to 2,000 numbered copies. Oblong folio. xxiv, 168 pp. Copiously illustrated in color and black and white. Original half black morocco ruled in gilt over blue cloth boards. My copy is number 1338.
My question is, what catergory should I list it in?
I know the book is rare and worth good dollars. It is in excellent condition so I don't want it to get lost in the mire , so to speak.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Okay I would put it under Books,Rare as its not an antique so does not belong there.

I did find 2 other copies listed on the net for about 450.00.Rule of thumb on ebaY is about half that but who knows maybe more.

Thanks Adrian,
When I look at the category lists there is such a choice that I want to get it right first time.
Your advice is appreciated.

I know there are too many confusing categories.I would list as Captain Cook put the dates in it too and Voyages as you will get people looking for the early stuff taking a look too.

Plus its in the title so there is nothing wrong with it.

Shipped many an item to Aussieland.

See yah later the Limy
