Where is the best place to research the value of a print?

Where can I obtain an estimate of the value of a [URL removed] A. W. Elson & Company #386 Alice Freeman Palmer Memorial? I’ve been able to find information about the print (e.g., its number 386 from Elson) but can’t locate any information that provides a sense of its value.

The image on the print is from Wellesley College.

Archive.org has an on line version of a 1910 book by Elson that catalogs all the prints.

Any help is appreciated.

The link below will take you to a book published in 1910 about the A.W. Elson & Co. along with all of their prints up to that time. It doesn’t give you a current value of your print but it does include a pic of your print and is a very interesting book. Good place to start, the website might be able to help you with identifying the value.

The link is to the web site Open Library, just “click it” or copy/paste the link to your browser address bar. It will take you directly to the books page. On the right hand side you will see READ “Online” use that, it’s pretty cool. You get to page through this 100 year old old book, old yellow pages and all.
