Chess Eccentricities. An old book on Chess variants from 1885.[All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

A copy of this book is in the John G. White chess collection Cleveland
Public Library, USA; a ms note in the flyleaf says that only 14 copies
were printed.  (http://cpl.org/sdi-special-collections.asp)

My chess club (Charlton chess club, London) owns a copy which it wishes
to
sell.  Does anyone know if eBay is a good place to sell old and rare
chess
books?  Is a reader of Chess Variants interested in acquiring the book?  


Any reply can be posted here or emailed to charltonchess@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks.
