When it comes to collectibles, it's never worth what you think it is. I have a stash of U.S. proof coins that I wanted to sell prior to relocating to Thailand. Worth only the precious metal content. The 16 year old me was very disappointed.
Collectibles are always niche. Unless you're dialed in to that particular community, what will be offered will be disappointing. It is a valuable item to us but not so much to the general public.
 
Don't sell your coins below their face value.
 
A quick review on Abebooks.com lists prices ranging between $300 and $2200...but only one is signed by Lawson himself priced at $575 but it also includes signatures of Doolittle and the book's illustrator. That item is also in much better condition than the version you have. It may be worth a few hundred bucks but probably not much more than that.
