Dear Andrew,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a version of the "Poor Richard" almanac by Benjamin Franklin printed and published by Thomas Y. Crowell in New York around 1900.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in medium condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 10 to 20 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
