I'd call up Robin Bledsoe.  She is the largest used horse book
dealer in the US.  Her store is in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The phone is:  617-576-3634.  She can tell you what she'd ask
for them, and point you on to other sources.

I'd also try Barbara Cole of October Farm, another used horse
book and ephemera dealer.  She handles more of the saddleseat
stuff than Bledsoe does.  Prices paid tend to be lower, and prices
asked, higher.  I don't have a phone number off-hand, but she
lives in Raleigh, North Carolina.

I don't know what the deal is with the Walking Horses, but most of
the Morgan Horse registries have been reprinted.  The difference in
value between an original and a reprint is large.

And there's always an archive search on eBay!  Bledsoe told me the
prices paid on eBay tend to be high.
