The price range is $350-750, except for a couple of more expensive copies that are signed by Tennesse Williams as well. It all depends on condition, and who is offering it. (I am assuming that you have the dust jacket as well in this search.)

You can get a ballpark estimate of values for books like this by checking any of a number of sources on the net:
abebooks.com
alibris.com
ilab-lila.com
biblio.com
and others, or going to bookfinder.com or addall.com, which index many bookfinding sites.

You should remember that these are retail prices, and if you sell the book to a dealer or on ebay, you will probably get less.

I hope this is helpful.
