The item I have is an original copy (hardbound) of the 1899 "Regulations
for the government of The Life-Saving Service of the United States". As
far as I have been able to research, this was the last edition of the
regulations before the USLSS was absorbed by the new US Coast Guard in
1917

What specifically about this book would lead you to believe that
anyone in 2014 would want to own it, refer to it, or purchase it at
any price?
