I haven't been able to find out anything about its value, which should be enhanced by the fact that my husband's descendants were the owners/publishers of Ladies World in 1912. This piece is from the collection we inheried of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Douglas Moore, the nephew of the Ladies World (McClure Publishing, I believe) owners. So there is proveable provenance as well as a unique piece of history. The cover is signed by one of the writers and perhaps by Mary Fuller herself. (I can't tell what the squiggles under her picture are...) Does anyone have any idea where I should try to sell this and how much it might bring under the circumstances? Thank you!

Few things compare. In my mind, anyway. How nice, after all these years, to meet Mary.

Few things compare. In my mind, anyway.

How nice, after all these years, to meet Mary.
