I also have a fairy ratty 1953 Porsche shop manual somewhere. I have no idea what they are worth, but I've been taking care of them. I have them in sealed bags and haven't needed to open them in years - although I should look for that extensive chapter on corner balancing that Afterburnerboy swears is in the shop manual  .
Here are pictures. I'm not taking them out of the bags for pictures because it's a pain to re-seal them.

If I had a house with space, I'd be sucking up that sort of thing. The old stuff is so cool, but i don''t have room in the apt and don't need more for storage.
