How much is an Audubon folio worth?
1 Answer
How much an Audubon folio is worth will depend on its age, historical significance, condition and other factors. In 2018, a double-elephant folio of The Birds of America fetched $9.65 million at auction in New York City. The folio was the first major work by the American ornithologist, naturalist and painter. During his lifetime, Audubon identified 25 new species of birds. If you own an Audubon folio, consider having a certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer assess it for you to determine how much it may be worth.
