Below is a link to another underpriced rare book that seldom sells below $3 - 400 dollars.  The current ebay price is $99.

Ed,
It's an article in a book titled "Philadelphia Furniture and its Makers" by John Snyder.  I believe it's a compilation of articles from "The Magazine Antiques." The book is 158 pgs. and readily available for less than $10.
