Back in the id 90's on a vacation to the San Juan Islands I stopped in a little antique store on Orca Island. In that store I bought a 4 volume set of Thomas Jefferson's Works, Letters and Miscellaneous published after his death in 1828 by his nephew Thomas Jefferson Randolph. The set cost me $75. In the back of Volume 1 was a copy of a rough draft of the Declaration of Independence. A few years back I found a set for sale of Tj's works for about $1500.
