i picked up the 24 vol. _American Artists Edition: The Complete Works of
Mark Twain_ in 1992 at a used bookstore for $60. the editions are actually
from multiple years, so i am sure that decreases the value somewhat.

you may want to try looking the set up in _Bookman's Price Index_ which
they should have in the reference section of your library if it is a
university library--not so sure a public library would have it.

good luck!
