Selling a very rare album

Want to get your thoughts. I'm selling my album collection and I have a rare issue from Jethro Tull named "Hand in Glove" that only 500 were pressed according to disclogs and popsike. The album actually has paper glued on the front and back with Ian Andersons face with a slogan on the front and the song names on the back. It is a double album in mint condition. How would you determine or who would you ask how much something like this is worth?

If its a bootleg, you won't get much for it.  I bought a Pink Floyd bootleg called "Raving and drooling" from the Animals tour and it is one of the worst recordings I ever heard.  A tin can telephone has better sound.  I paid $40.00 for it, what a waste of money.  If anyone wants it, Ill let it go for $20.00, lol.  I purchased it from discogs.

I'm pretty sure that Discogs no longer allows the sale of "bootlegs".

That is true Greg, or sales of downloaded music even if it was an official release.

Just to throw my lot in, I also bought a concert bootleg by Rush on eBay.
Terrible SQ but as I have all of Rush output I wanted it but it will never get played again......

According to Gripsweat it is about a $50.00 album, tops.  If you can get that for it, you will be doing well. Not an artist that there is strong interest in these days.You might find one of his fan sites and see if they will allow you to post it for sale.
