Question
I have a needle pack/book of needles.
The cover -  Our Presidents Historical Needle Book
Copyright 1926 From N. Shure Co. Chicago.
What can you tell me about these. I have searched online, but cannot find anything.
Thank You!

Answer
Hello DeeAnn.  Needlebooks and needlepacks are collectible but do not command very high prices, since they were massed produced.  There are needlebook sites on the internet that may help you identify the value of your item.  Without a picture to see condition, I cannot provide a value for you.  eBay also lists many items like yours and should give you a good idea of selling price.  Hope this helps.  Barbara
