Not every old book is valuable — most Soviet-era publications were printed in huge runs and have no collector value today. But some do: 19th-century and older editions, Lithuanian books from the press ban period (1864–1904), interwar publications, first editions and signed copies.
Value depends on rarity, year, condition and collector demand. We value libraries and larger collections together and say directly what has value and what does not.
