 julia childs autographed
I just got into my collection 6 first edition Julia Childs books all autographed by Julia and Paul Childs. I was wondering the value because of insurance reasons. They are personalized to my Grandmother and some like Mastering the art of French Cooking has a whole page written to my grandmother telling about the good times that Julia had cooking with her. My grandmother was a big part of the restraunt business in St. Louis in the 60s and 70s and told me stories about her cooking with Julia. You can't put a price on these books to my but my insurance company says otherwise. I cant seem to find a price on the internet.
