Hello,

I have inherited these from my American grandfather. We don't have these in England and I do not know if they are important in anyway. They are in a set with an interesting book.

I am not very political so I prob will not keep these. Should I put them on ebay? What should I ask for them? They are in extremely good condition.

Thank you.

I would not spend the time to put them on ebay. I have eleven different inaugural covers, somewhat similar to yours, from Kennedy to Bush that I have offered for $20 postpaid for more than a year with no takers. That's less than $2 each, delivered to your door. Here's a quick look at 3 of them for comparison:

Unfortunately, these modern COVERS don't normally have much retail value.

However, they probably have great sentimental value for you. Why don't you keep them and consider adding more to the collection.

If you're determined to part with them, give them to a neighbor's kid. You'll save yourself a lot of time and you won't get more than a few dollars anyway.

Thanks for your quick replies. I will put them in the loft with some other things. Now I need to go through all these stamps he has left me. There are a lot.

Thanks
