lead type

I have a building that had a print shop in it years ago. We have found pieces of old lead type, parts of type cases and other stuff I’m not sure what it is. How can we find out what any of it is worth? Are there any books?

Where are you located? Perhaps someone here that is relatively geographically close to you could come and assess what you actually have. Your current description is too ambiguous to offer any practical answers. What kind/style of type, what shape it’s in, etc. all play significant roles in determining the value/worth of what you might have.
