Very rarely see these at swap meets, but I do pay $15-$25 when I see them. Seems the domestic cars go quicker for higher prices so the swappers are dying to get rid of these. My garage manual bookcase is 4' wide 8' tall and full. More in our library upstairs. I have flat- rate manuals going back to 1938. As Boink says "Ebay", that is how I got owner and transmission manuals for my Jag MK 1.

Cool Books Doug! I am a sucker for manuals. Obviously the real answer to value is - "whether someone wants them." - some of those are (I think) desirable - Alfa/ Rolls/ MGA - others likely not so much A40 etc. That said, up here manuals tend to sell in the $15-25 range (as per LarryK) - a number of folk here think they are worth $50 each - and they never sell. On Kijiji (like Craigslist) there is one guy been trying to sell obscure Vauxhall manuals for a year now - no one is buying them because, I suspect, no one even knows what that model of Vauxhall is. Like previous comments, Ebay is your friend.
