Going to have a hard time selling this

[jason4kstate]

Bought this for .50 cents today. It;s a prison made book carved from coal. Apparently the State of Kansas had a prison that mined a ton of coal until the 1940's. I'm thinking I can get $100 on the bay or more locally. Thanks for looking!

You should do just fine (EBay) jason4kstate. Heck, they sell used underware on EBay and make money!

Why would you have a hard time selling it?

It is essentially folk art. Should be an easy sell. Great find!

As long as your not doing hard time you won't have a hard time. Nice steal!
