American Type Founders Co. Peerless Gem 8173 Paper Cutter

I have a really big paper cutter in my garage. I think it is cast iron and weighs several hundred pounds. The words American Type Founders Co. Peerless Gem 8173 are cast into it. It has two extra cutting blades in wood cases. Does anyone know the approximate value? Thanks!

Could you post a picture and the size of the cutting area?

I certainly will try to post that within a few days. Today, I noticed a posting that looks just like the one in my garage on this site. It is posted under General Discussion by VermonArtStudio but the date is 22 Jan 08. I will get to work on the photo.
